  1. All of my interactions with CCR have been very positive. Great shop, nice folks! That being said, I would put a used engine in, or upgrade to a 2.5. Talk to Joel at: http://www.greensyncro.com/Home_Page.php Great guy, Great shop. Larry
  2. Change it one or 2 more times to work all the old fluid out. RPM is correct I'd say.
  3. Nice article. My 98 OBS has been noisy for years. I'll get to them sometime.
  4. OBS, I have the same car and LOVE it. Mine has 320K on it. 2.2 motor is rock solid. Good Price!
  5. Not worth all the work required and you will loose the foam backing
  6. I'd pull it and make sure the cable and vent flap are working smooth and free. I have drilled a new hole in the gear for the cable on some. They are still working
  7. I'd stay away from the turbo's, much more to go wrong, harder to work on, and much higher chance of being run hard>
  8. I've pulled a bunch from yards, always fixed the fault. Does your low fuel light work correctly? Different sensor.
  9. Hose is cheap, would be worth a try. Used engine but in HI I'm sure there is limited supply.
  10. Toothed TB idler gear. I've 4 different folks have these fail in the last 6 months. New TB and full TB job had them all back up and going in a day.
  11. Subaru Seals are a good investment and plan on another t belt change 60K from now to be on the safe side.
  12. What's the CEL code? Make sure the light works and read the computer. Start with the basics: Plugs - NGK copper core Plug Wires - Subaru or NGK Get a Mechanic who knows Subarus!
  13. no you need every thing off the standard trans car to do the swap, but you can Legacy777 has great thread.
  14. Check the CCA of the battery could also be a leaking injector is allowing fuel pressure to bleed off
