Disconnect your neg terminal. Remove the two small wires from the ALT top 10mm nut. Hook up you battery and see if you still have the draw. Was it an aftermarket Alt? Are you getting the click from the Starter? Good wack with a block of wood sometimes gets the starter going. Could also try jumping the starter terminals. -
1+ on Torque Bind. Search it on USMB, lots of great pics and info!

I use to pull the coil wire and crank it until the oil light went out. All the above opitons are good.

Bleed it first and also check the condition of the hose. -
In CO the yards will not sell seats with airbags in them. You can try to cut off the airbag label and yellow wiring but thats a bunch of work. Rear seats between full size Legacy and WRX.STI will be different widths.

Good luck. Just keep the oil and coolant full!

Thanks, I suggested she call you. Good option even though its a days trip south.

Friend in Bellingham WA needs Subaru Maintenance. She was given a $5000 price estimate for the HG and axles repairs on her 2007 Legacy. It has 180K. She's wanting to know if it's worth it. I told her if it's been taken care of and with normal maintenance she should hit 250K. Lot's of unknown's from CO and having not seen the car. Her brother is in Portland, OR so GD shop is my pick.

I may have a compressor for you. Send me a pic. Larry

I can send you a good used one for $25. You can do it yourself. If you are going that far, when was the Timing Belt done last? Cam and Crank Seals leaking? You might want to do it all at once.
-
If I was going to do all that work, I'd pull the motor and do both sides and T-Belt, water pump, seals while its out.

I've installed a few all metal radiators, including side tanks. I have a 2 OPL aluminum radiators I'm very happy with. 01 Impreza and 06 Forester.

Search the form for burping the coolant system. Subaru engine like to trap air in the coolant system if not filled properly. It can lead to overheating. Overheating is not good and can contribute/cause HG leaks. Make sure you have a Subaru Thermostat and not an aftermarket one. Properly fill the coolant system and burp out all air. Drive it and watch the overflow for air and coolant being pushed out of the system. When the engine cools, the overflow coolant should be drawn back into the radiator. Check the radiator fluid level in the radiator when engine is cold.

I have a few used pumps. $20 + shipping They were pulled from they yards when I saw good ones.

Cam Sensor wiring. I bet you have eaten wires somewhere.
-
I'd just stay away. Plenty others out there.
-
Did you go stop to stop to bleed out all the air? Is the belt properly tightened? Did the symptoms change? Larry

Years ago I use to make trips across the US to get cars and had like experiences a time or two. It not ideal, but the wise choice if it did not meet the inspection goals.

I've checked lots of tools. No problem. I'm in Colorado Springs, 80 miles south. You are welcome to use the garage. Larry

Cross members are different from Auto to Manual trans and the drive shafts are different lengths.
