I brought my car from South San Francisco to Redwood City.
Are you still up for tomorrow?
Just a side note: I turned PM's off a long time ago (simply because I forget to check it regularly.

Hello, Randy. How've you been my friend? I noticed you were in L.A. from the Subaru WRX STi introduction.

I emailed you sev. Tomorrow is a go. Anytime after 1pm.

I received no email. I've been checking every 59 seconds for the last 6 hours.
EDIT: Heh, you emailed stisev@rcn.com. You forgot to put the 1 in there. A lot of people make that mistake. stisev@rcn.com is my dummy SPAM account, lol.
I got the email. I'll talk to you tomorrow my friend.

Hey guys,
Just a quick update:
KurleeDaddeeWRX and I went ahead and connected the OBD-II to my car. Not to my suprise, the I received the same CEL error code that I got about last year. P0170 -- Fuel Air Trim Malfunction.
If anyone has ANY information on this, contact me immediately at the following address: stisev1 AT rcn DOT com.
I appreciate any helpful insights or comments anyone might have.
Thanks again,
Sevag

I have been doing some research and will send you some links of the things I have found. Both talk about the O2 sensor and how the ECU is responding to it. I will email you the information in a bit.

Replies sent.
These are our tentative ideas:
Check Exhaust system for leaks (SM does not specify but I would presume this refers to up-stream of the rear Catalytic Convertor)
Check Air Intake system for leaks
Check Fuel Pressure
Check ECT
Check Mass A/F sensor
Remove S-AFC and run ECU
