ocei77 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Am in the process of replacing a heater core in a 96 OB. Once you remove the dash, there is a cross brace that stiffens the body, plus. Where it is attached to the tranny tunnel, there are 4 "reverse torx screws". They look like a regular torx, but they have a pin in the middle requiring a special torx . I have called my local dealer and they don't know the exact size of this screw. Anyone? Also, the replacement heater cores( aftermarket) do not come with the pipes that go through the firewall. Again, the parts man at the dealer doesn't know if they separate from the body, for the dealer sells it as a complete housing unit. Do the pipes separate from the core body? And, no I don't have one in hand to check. Thanks in advance. O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 The screws have "security" Torx heads. Go to RadioShack and ask for a set of security bits. They also sell large kits at harbor freight and northern tool that have about 100 different bits of various types and sizes. http://www.harborfreight.com/100-piece-security-bit-set-91310.html Can't help much for the heater core but you can get the FSM here: http://www.main.experiencetherave.com/subaru_manual_scans/ 95 - 99 are basically the same, so any of those should at least help point you in the right direction.
