General Description
 The OBD-II diagnostics procedure is different
from the usual diagnosis procedure. When trouble-
shooting the OBD-II models, connect Subaru Se-
lect Monitor or the OBD-II general scan tool to the
vehicle.
2. ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL SYS-
TEM
 MFI system is a system that supplies the opti-
mum air-fuel mixture to the engine for all the vari-
ous operating conditions through the use of the
latest electronic technology.
With this system fuel, which is pressurized at a con-
stant pressure, is injected into the intake air pas-
sage of the cylinder head. The injection quantity of
fuel is controlled by an intermittent injection system
where the electro-magnetic injection valve (fuel in-
jector) opens only for a short period of time, de-
pending on the quantity of air required for one cycle
of operation. In actual operation, the injection quan-
tity is determined by the duration of an electric sig-
nal applied to the fuel injector and this permits
simple, yet highly precise metering of the fuel.
 Further, all the operating conditions of the engine
are converted into electric signals, and this results
in additional features of the system, such as large
improved adaptability, easier addition of compen-
sating element, etc.The MFI system also has the following features:
 Reduced emission of harmful exhaust gases.
 Reduced in fuel consumption.
 Increased engine output.
 Superior acceleration and deceleration.
 Excellent engine start and warm-up perfor-
mance by the correction of engine coolant tem-
perature and intake air temperature.3. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND
ELECTRONIC-HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYS-
TEM
The electronic-hydraulic control system consists of
various sensors and switches, TCM and the hy-
draulic controller including solenoid valves. The
system controls the transmission body including
shift control, lock-up control, overrunning clutch
control, line pressure control and shift timing con-
trol. It also controls the AWD transfer clutch. In oth-
er words, the system detects various operating
conditions from various input signals and sends
output signals to shift solenoids 1, 2 and low clutch
timing solenoid and 2-4 brake timing solenoid, line
pressure duty solenoid, lock-up duty solenoid,
transfer duty solenoid and 2-4 brake duty solenoid
(a total of eight solenoids).
