My grandparents have a 2000 Subaru Legacy with only 6500 miles on it.
It has the 2.5 liter 4 cylinder.  The car is brand new for all intensive
purposes.  For some reason the car will not start.  The battery is fine
because the starter chugs away just fine.  I checked the ignition and
the fuel pump fuses which are fine.  I can't find an emergency fuel
cutoff switch in the book either.  I'm guessing either the coil pack for
the spark plugs died or the fuel pump isn't working.  Also, the alarm is
disabled so that couldn't be it.  That's all I can think of and that
will require them to take it to the dealer.  I disconnected the battery
for around 25 minutes and re-connected it but it didn't do anything, nor
did I think it would.  Does anyone happen to have any other insight to a
reason why this might be happening?  
 
Thank you,
