We try to help a Forester XT Engine swap, a WRX E85 issue and more

The guys try to help out a fellow gearhead trying to balance family and cars, a 13 Subaru WRX with ethanol sensor problems on a Flex Fuel Build, a 04 Subaru WRX with boost control problems, a 04 Subaru Forester XT with engine swap questions, and finally a 2013 Subaru WRX with a wandering idle.


Jon and Mike aka Drifting Platypus aka DP got to talking and found that they both were regular listeners to the Car Talk radio show with Tom and Ray Magliozzi. That inspired us to get a list of problems or issues that you all are having, and that is what we talk about here!
