Yep, they will work.

Do you hear the fuel pump run when you first turn on the Key? Have you tried putting a little gas in the intake. If it runs then, it's a fuel issue. Are you sure you have the correct timming? Good Luck

First, change the PCV with a Subaru part and make sure the hoses going to it are not blocked. Search this form for oil consumption and you will find several threads. Second, a 95 with EGR valve that you have on your 99 is a plug and play option. I've done many of these swaps and love them.

There is a resistor pack in the Heater Duct to the left of the fan behind the glove box. It goes bad sometimes and you will loose a fan speed or two. It's easy to change. Plug and two screws. If you jump the plug the fan will be on high speed. Take a close look at the fuse box and under dash wiring. Sounds like the PO may have tapped into the wiring. Put it back to stock if you can. If it's got an aftermarket security system get rid of it.

I've used the Grip Force Clutch kits and have been happy with them. 4 years is not that long on a clutch, is it slipping? if not, let it go. If you do go in to do the clutch make sure you reseal the rear breather plate under the flywheel. Do NOT change the rear main seal. The tail lights, make sure you got all of the nuts, there is one or two on the outside edge, as well as the ones on the back. Even with all of the nuts removed the sticky stuff they use to seal it to the body will hold it. Light pressure with a flat bar between the body and light will start it moving. Doing this on a hot day is better than a cold winter day. Apply some heat to the body inside if you can, heat gun. Take it very easy with the pressure, the plastic of the light will crack first, if you're to aggressive. You could practice on another Subaru in the yard first.

Well the good thing is these are inside the car, either under the rear seat or just behind it in the cargo area. Pretty easy to pull. www.car-part.com would be another option for a good used one.

What year and what engine? Pretty basic, lots of good info here if you search timing belt and on you tube. Pull the timing covers: Crank gear has a tick mark in the back timing tooth that gets lined up with the tick mark on the engine block. The Cam Gear marks will be lined up with the tic marks in the plastic back cover of the timing belt cover and the head split line. How many miles are on the T-Belt? Most of the time you can still see the original marks on the belt and can use those when you put it back on. If it's been over 80K, I'd replace the belt along with the seals, Oil pump rear cover screw and o-ring, and all of the idler pulleys.

I believe these are pre greased and come sealed. Never need to repack. If the new bearings failed the hub is most likely damaged and out of round. Get a new hub.

Did they use a Subaru Pump? Try putting a little gas in the intake, it should start and run for a bit. If so yes you have a fuel problem, if not keep on looking. Aftermarket pumps are junk, I'd go to the yard and pull a used Subaru Pump first. Just cause there is 12 volts at the pump plug, does not mean you have good voltage under load. wwww.brighterideas.com Pack probe the connector, put a couple of small wires into the connector and hook it back up, Then read voltage when you turn on the key. Still have 12 volts but the pump is not running, bad pump.

When it slows is the bulb very dim? Most of the time if you pry the contact in the socket up a bit and install a bulb with good contact points that will fix it. Grounds are always worth cleaning, but I bet it the contacts in the socket.

Take a good look at the knock sensor and or pull it and read the resistance. If they fail, the ignition timing is backed off and the mileage goes down as well as the power.

Subaru or aftermarket security system? Are you marker lights blinking when you turn on the Key? If so, find the reset button under the dash and press it with the key on. Most systems can be removed, one or two wires will have to be reconnected.

Look at the oil pressure sensor up top. That may be the source of you leak, running down the pump face.

you need the long 2 piece cover for your 01. There is the driver side small cover, but the middle and passenger side is all one piece.

Start with the basics. Check the radiator level when cold at the radiator Is the over flow tank full and does the engine suck coolant back into the engine when it cools down When is the last time the timing belt, pulleys and water pump was changed Where does the temp gauge sit when hot and is it always at the same spot You will most likely find the answer.

You will need the wiring diagram for your car. Find the ground wire and make sure it's going to ground. If they just cut the harness and were checking for voltage, guess what's sitting on the open ground looking for a ground, yep battery voltage.

Yes, I'd just swap them both.

Pull your spare tire out and look for damage, also pull up the carpet panels in the rear. The bumper bolts in with 2 19mm bolts per side and then some small stuff for the plastic. There may be a little sheet metal damage, but nothing you couldn't adjust a used bumper when installing.

Emily, glad you're hanging in there. Backs are tough. Take Care, Larry

I have 332K on my 98 OBS. I'd drive it anywhere. Cars are only as safe as the operator - Seat belts on - Defensive driving Take a walk through a junk yard, you will see Subaru's that are totally smashed in the front and the doors still open and close fine.

Sounds like the IAC hose, large 1" one is off.

Knock Sensor will cause your symptoms, power loss and high fuel consumption as it retards the idle. Make sure you clock the new on correctly. Larry

You said you adjusted the clutch, so I assume you have a cable operated clutch, do you also have the hill holder? If so your brakes may be dragging.

Does it have an aftermarket radio? If so, they took away the ground. That would be my bet.

Most likely the pump which can be rebuilt or replaced. Speedo, is most likely the speed sensor on the trans. Easy to change. Could be the dash, but that's pretty easy as well. No cable, it electronic. Larry
