My '90 LS AWD 2.2L A/T Legacy LS has been mostly parked for 3-4 months because it was draining charge overnight (suspect it needs alternator and battery for...
It shouldn't be too hard to locate if it's losing 1/2 a quart in 30 seconds... that's more of a gusher than a slow leak... I'd say open the hood, than have...
First check all your oil type liquid levels. There really is only one place for engine oil to come gushing out of, and thats the oil filter. It may be possible...
Check the oil pump seal, front cam seals or valve cover gaskets or all. Seen cam seals and valve cover gaskets go a couple of times. Big mess Bob Davis ...
Thanks all--you've given me good ideas. It was sitting/not running in Atlanta warmth (it's a New Hampshire Subie, hopefully enjoying its declining years down...
1. How do you release the fuel pressure and/or cut power to fuel pump in a 2003 2.5L engine in order to change the fuel filter? 2. I remember a post some time...
The headlight lens cleaner trick I read that worked for me was to use Whitening toothpaste...much cheaper than a lot of other routes. The concept described was...
I posted this issue once, but I wanted to run it thru the group again to see if I get more input. I have a '98 Outback with AT. Lately, as I am typically...
The knock sensor will cause the ignition timing to run late, which makes the motor seem like it's under more load than it really is, the transmission reads...
NO crawling needed. There are two plates under the floor behind the rear seat. Remove the passenger side plate and there is the fuel pump connector. Joe K ...
There should be a fuse, and you can then crank the engine, that should relieve most of the pressure. Remove the fuel cap as well to keep the tank from being...
this is before the spin on filter, and I've had a number of people tell me just dump/fill the fluid, do not drop the pan. But you're right, it does sound a bit...
Yeah, the internal screens usually don't require much service... I was thinking of the spin-on filter... so if it doesn't have that, then prolly scratch that...
They don't have filters, they have an internal screen that never gets changed. When was the last time someone checked the ignition timing in real time, a bad...
Try changing the fluid again. If the problem stops and comes back after the same amount of usage or sooner then you have wear that is contaminating the fluid....
I was looking for someone who has replaced an inner tie rod end with the rack on the car. Are the flats on the rack 19mm? Is a chisel the best way to unlock...
Just an update, I spent the day working on the new-to-us 98 Outback today. New tires (Bridgestone Turanza) mounted on 16" WRX wheels, new brake pads front and...
HID conversions (ie HID capsules in standard incandescent lamps) usually works poorly. Fog lights should keep light low to the ground and spread wide. An HID...
At 08:48 PM 8/11/2006 -0400, Glen Farney your nimble fingers typed... ... Can't get just the glass you need to get the whole assembly. This is an aftermarket...
My wife's 90 Legacy wagon has a problem with the air suspension and I badly need some help fixing it. Before you tell me to just swap out the struts and...
There is a chance the compressor is worn out. I'm thinking this because you stated it will run continuously when hot wired. It should dump the pressure when...
... Hope this helps some, endwrench has two PDF's on air suspensions (right click save as here: http://endwrench.com/images/pdfs/AirSuspSumm01.pdf and ...
as many of you know I have a n/a 2wd 87 gl wagon. my question is... can I throw a turbo from a turbo model without harming my engine... I'm curious because the...
Not exactly an answer to your question, but I once took a non-turbo engine (block & pistons) and swapped on turbo heads and basically made the non-turbo engine...
