Hi all, I just wrapped up the first 1000 miles on a new Outback. I have to report it moves rather well, gets about 27 MPG (This is a 5-speed manual), and...
I spoke to Emily on the phone, she's the wife of the owner of Colorado Component Rebuilders. She shot me a price of $2695 for a long block, no intake, plus...
I would check with http://www.reconengines.com/index.html I bought a 454 Chevy from them for 1500. Put my intake, etc. on, but a great engine. Lester P.S. They...
There are a few radio transmitter units that will plug into the headphone jack and transmit on FM so you can listen, I like this method even better than the...
It's that time.... I have a 1999 Outback Sport and the brakes are making horrible grinding noises. We're going to change the brakes and rotors this weekend. ...
Hi Glen, Sorry about the delay. My computer went down and I finally found the problem. After replacing the hard drive (upgrading to a 40 gig) I have a ...
Rotors are rotors but for disc brake on Subaru's I use two makes. Rofren Ultima or (if I can't get Rofren) NAPA True Stop (Green Box). They seem to do the...
Rofren is what we use on all the cars we service (since they are noe made in the states) but they work great on postal and delivery subies. It just so happens...

Hi, I just purchased a 95 Legacy Outback with 92500 miles. My question is the tires. It has Michelin Arctic Alpine's on 1 wheel & Bridgestone Blizzaks on the...
Pat, as long as all 4 tires are the same size, it should not hurt anything. Lester ... From: Subaru-Tech@yahoogroups.com Date: 09/02/04 09:31:49 To:...
I agree but I would not go by the numbers on the tire itself. Different brands are not all the same. The only real way is to actually measure each tire: ...
I was going to buy a Chilton's manual, but there is not a SINGLE copy of the 1999 Outback Sport at any of the 9 stores I called. Any one know of a website with...

I think Belkin makes one. Look around at accessories for MP3 players, they are often listed there. www.crutchfield.com is a decent source for such goodies....
After doing some research i have determined that it is the front crank seal. How difficult is this to replace and should i have my timing belt replaced at the...
Hopefully, Moolie will Chime in here but the answer to the timing belt question is "change it" any time oil leaks in the vicinity of the timing belt. Oil...
Classic crank shaft seal leak. My wife's GT started leaking at 85,000. Replacement of the timing belt is advised, since it's off the car to change out the...
The tires you have are snow tires, as you probably guessed. They will tend to wear rather quickly in warm weather and on dry pavement, and generally don't...
Glen, I think I will feel better getting a matched set on the car. Especially once it starts the typical Oregon rain season. Thanks for the info. Pat ... ...
Yes, you can run these tires during non-snowy conditions, but they will experience greatly accelerated wear as a result. Since you say that they are in good...
Hi David, Yes, they are right. If you have a crank seal leaking @ 72,000, install a crank seal, 4 cam seals, timing belt and check the water pump to see if ...
Thanks to all that replied. I called the dealer and they stated that most likely it is my oil pump. They quoted $700 to change the timing belt and oil pump....
Robert, That is what I like about you and a couple of others like Glenn and Alan on this forum! You don't just "fix" the symptoms, you dig deeper to find the...
That sounds about right for your local stealer er dealer, but my local garage would charge less than $500 and Robert "Moolie" G. would probably charge less...
