What ems are you running?

im running motec M800 plug and play...

In australia we had an alarm system (brant) installed with subarus and this actually may be the problem. As there has been a recall for it to be rewired, so that may be the issue..

Will see if it fixes it on thursday..

also check the wiring on your fuel pumps...

I had a similar issue last summer... I think it was down to the wiring job my installer did when installing the fuel system.

when i had everything cut repeatedly and hard restarts.....it ended up being the alternator.
