Non turbo. Has fresh tank of 91 octane from chevron. Happened before fill up.

Just happened today and a little sputter while giving it gas in neutral while parked. Also a little bit of a rough idle

change your fuel filter for starters. Could just be bad gas.

I've had two Z32's btw

Also, do a fresh tuneup with plugs and such. Try to eliminate all the easy ****.

I've had the car for about 2 1/2 years and have only put maybe 3000 miles on it. It was tuned up right before I got it. For the most part its just been sitting but have been driving it lately because my xj is being worked on. I ran down to napa and got some new plugs. Took it for a test drive and right off the bat its driving better. I'll look in to a new fuel filter probably next week.

Thanks man I appreciate the help!

No problem buddy. They're good cars if you take care of them. Not the easiest to work on lol.

Yeah I really like it but I'm getting ready to sell it in a few months. Taking a different route and going to get a newer ('05+) WRX
