RSL Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 This is my first subaru. 2000 outback sport ej22 i think. About 230000miles. Like a dumb I ran it out of oil. Now the engine sounds like an old diesel truck and won't drive. Can anyone tell me what this noise might be or how to fix it? Like I said this is my first subaru any help is greatly appreciated Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john in KY Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Rod and crankshaft bearings are now history. Engine is junk. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Yep, new engine time. Fortunately it's a pretty easy engine swap on the subaru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikaleda Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Well Subaru like most other car company's design engines that when ran out of oil destroys the lower end. I'd say if you ask yourself this question you should take it to a shop. You will need another engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 need another engine. 1999-2001 2.2 liter from a legacy or impreza will work 1999 forester or impreza RS & 2000-2004 2.5 liters will work as well. make sure the drivers side cam/crank triggers are the same or just install the ones from your current engine on the next one and you won't have to check. there's two different style, need to keep the correct ones to the vehicle.
