I just purchased a really clean 1991 Subaru legacy from a private
party. I bought it knowing the censor light on the dash was
malfunctioning and wouldn't go out - dumb, I know! I had it at a
reliable mechanic's for 4 hours this morning - it came up with 3 codes.
They could not get them fully cleared and the light to go off,
everytime they did it came back on. I know the actual exhaust system is
fine, I had a smog test run on it and they guy told me so and gave me
the print out. He said the only reason he can't pass me is because of
the censor light. .and yes, I live in good old California! The mechanic
thinks I'm going to have to have the computer replaced by a Subaru
dealer, costing at least $400 for the part. I have to have this done
within 30 days - the car has out of state plates and I need to get it
completely registered. Advice please?
