We used to have a really good hose at the service center I used to work at. It was nice and thick, but still flexible, I think it was harbor freight it looked just like this.http://m.harborfreight.com/38-in-x-50-ft-premium-rubber-air-hose-61939.html?utm_referrer=direct%2Fnot%20provided

Must have come in the ls sedans cause mine was a high optioned l trim package.

I used to have a 90 sedan, when I scrapped it out, the seats were bolted in. The upper part has two bolts holding it on and two tabs. Even removing the upper part of the seat will not give access to anything there is a metal support rod and cardboard behind. The seats do not fold on the sedan.
-
They don't fold down, they have to be unbolted.

Where are you located?

Sounds like a good car that's been taken care of. Worst case scenario the head gaskets go out in another 75k miles then either do them again or swap an ej22 in (really easy swap) I would jump on it personally.

I don't remember the order exactly, but Subaru abs bleed procedure is wierd. I think it goes right rear, left front, left rear and right front. I'm not positive, though its been a while since I've had to bleed a system with abs.

The injectors are a side feed style and when the o rings on the injector start to leak it will cause it to leak fuel into the cylinders causing flooding. When you are opening the throttle to get it started your putting the ecu into a clear flood mode and then it takes a while to clear the excess gas out. The easiest fix is to swap in a set of used injectors with rails and all.

Leaky injector orings

Is there a FWD light on on the dash? Not sure if this model has it, but some have a fwd fuse that when inserted puts the trans into front wheel drive mode. Is there any flashing lights? Is the check engine or at temp light on? Does the rear end catch up if the front end slips for a bit? Sometimes there is a delay in awd engament, which can be caused by old fluid or I believe your model year people have had good luck with trans-x additive treatment.

I've always heard Colorado cars are supposed to be fairly clean of rust. Mine is from montrose Colorado and its really clean.

70ft lbs IIRC

Should be a hub assembly. It shouldn't be to hard, but then again that also depends on how rusty it is. I've had to use a puller and a BFH to get them out sometimes. Then again most of the time I've been able to get them out with little effort. They are definatly not the notoriously hard bearings of the older gen Subaru's.
-
Could also be filler tube gasket leaking. 90 doesn't have spark plugs running through the valve cover so there aren't any tube seals
-
Could be a faulty ecm coolant temp sensor reading it as colder than it really is. The two prong temp sensor is the one that goes to the ecm, try replacing it.

I always go for the free shipping when possible so there is less surprises at checkout
-
Ya that's the problem with ordering online. I've used partsgeek.com once and I bought a o.e. Bosch front o2 sensor for a 99 outback for $50 free shipping which was a third of what it was anywhere else. I didn't have any issues though so I might have just been lucky.
-
Do you have an H6?
-
ask for Subaru coolant conditioner.

I run a 5ah battery and Ive had it for about a year and charged it three or four times. Before I bought this one I would have totally agreed with you, but this one has seriously impressed me. I just used it to do a rear wheel bearing on a 97 impreza and it pulled the 32mm nut off like it was nothing and presssed the bearing our like it was nothing. Oh and that is another tool I highly recommend now that I've tried it out is OTC's hub grappler. Awesome tool makes doing wheel bearings a lot easier.

Its a ford the problem is circled on the front jk I've actually seen that happen a few times, no real reason why but the honeycomb style catillist the domestic car manufacturers use will do this.
-
The snow definatly slowed me down, I had to stop a couple times because my knees were frozen. And about 1hr is cussing the engineer that designed this.
-
I got done right before it started to rain too. Worst time of the year for a wheel bearing to go out.
