I'm curious of something at 60 MPH in 5th gear what should my rpms be at?

you know I've been looking for that anaerobic in auto zone and advance auto for 3 weeks now and I have yet to see any on the shelf.. I thought maybe permatex stopped selling it or whatever but I don't know its odd.

It moved most of it in the overflow bottle and it wont return back to the radiator. but it's never overflowed out of the bottle.

Pictures I took passenger side Drivers side

You know gary the first time I had this happen I looked at the gasket on the top of the motor you can see a bit of the gasket Now I've never held a OEM factory one in my hands but this one on here now it does not seem to look factory.

I had HID's in mine with my custom LHD set-up.. It's way better then these crappy stock headlights I'm driving with now :-/ I just don't have the money to buy the lights at the moment.. but I did put yellow film over my foglights and I can see my foglights better then my headlights.. I miss the projector lights man you can see reflective street signs from a good distance.. It's like a night and day difference. speaking of headlights I need to ask around here about what's not fitting right on my outback.

I just had to make sure so yeah the number I listed above will work on the 2.5

ML1018.. but for what engine and model? I picked the EJ251

I had them until I wrecked my car.... like others said you will blind traffic unless you don't do anything about the cutoff.. For me I ground out the cut off and I made one out of a coke can for a LHD car.. never got flashed ever.

interesting.. because when I had my 03 Forester XS the only time I seem something like that is when I had some air in the system. As for those bottles no I did not try that since I just plan on replacing the headgaskets anyways. The only thing I can't really try is if hills make it spike or not.. I know yesterday it was pretty warm in the mid 70's.. and I noticed when stopped in traffic the temp would only start to go up when I moved forward slowly and stopped going up when I stopped, BUT when I started moving forward at like 4+ Mph it would go up but then come down pretty rapidly and would stay at normal range. When on the highway it never seen it overheat at all.. In the youtube video I posted I was just coming off the highway (not overheated) but the traffic light that puts me on my street is kinda downhill to the light but levels out. Had I thought about it when doing the coolant I would of tested to see if it was blocked or a slow flow in the radiator

I iThink this shows it

Highway speeds ive never seen it go up and this is red line shifts... If I had not chanded the antifreeze I would do the flow test

Did I ever post the video of it? I cant remember but all other videos of overheating I never seen the temp move like that. I gotta run but will see if I can post it

No

done..used the sawzall

Finally got that ^&%^$& rusted hitch off my outback! I took the sawzall on it and it was painless!

I'm not so sure if it's totally 100% the headgaskets.. I not 100% sure on how it fails but I had torque running on my phone and looking at my coolant temp around 230 F is when the gauge starts to climb.. Ok So that would happen when I was moving slowly and it would go up pretty fast.. BUT when I start moving faster under power the temp went from 230 to 209F in about 10 Seconds.. that sounds like a possible blocked radiator or a funky water pump? From my understanding if it's going to run hot it's not going to keep going up and down.. Also the fluid level in the overflow is not going back into the radiator so I'm going to have to do something about that.

dealer finally had some radiator caps in stock so I picked one up after work the seals feels better after you turn the cap closed. Hopefully the fluid in the overflow will return back to the radiator.

I got a 2 Lb rubber mallet I hope that's good enough to tap some areas free? I have to look at the FSM but not many bolts that mate to the engine right like 5ish?

Got the tranny jack so next week I should have the new one in got a discount too on a beat up china box.

database error must of never posted the one where I put the picture up. gas leaks (more like pours) right where the cover is..

crap I was getting gas this morning and it's leaking where that rust spot is in the picture.. Now I'm thinking about buying the fuel pipe today hopefully it's in stock which I doubt. I was shocked my radiator cap was in stock today...

I already replaced the PCV the bubbles don't happen all the time. as far as the rad cap I'm going to replace it because it does not seem like it's making that good of a seal anyways.

I never thought too much about the H6.. maybe it's because we had one with 4 people in it but it felt gutless and it for sure is not a fast rever.
