Hi gang.
I have a MY98 Outback, which as the title says, occasionally cuts out/stalls when braking to a stop. I've become rather adept at bump-starting it by dropping the clutch when necessary. The car is getting on a bit; it's nudging 380 thou, so some problems are probably to be expected....
Some background, which may or may not be related. I've had the car for five years. The Engine light has been an almost constant companion, although the first time I got it looked at, apparently nothing irregular showed up. Some time later I was having an intermittent misfire around 2500 RPM, especially when accelerating from curves. A Subaru dignostic told me knock and O2 sensors were stuffed, and although I didn't do it straight away, both have since been replaced. I also had the plugs & leads done when the miss got worse; they were pretty stuffed my mechanic said. Cruise control does not work. I have no idea when it stopped, because I never used it anyway, but I know it did when I got the car 'cos I had a bit of a play with it.
That's pretty well solved the misfire, and the engine light even goes off occasionally! The car runs pretty well for its age, I just have this stalling when the revs are allowed to drop.
Any hints what might be causing it?
