Wait a minute...reliable engines don't need parts:lol:

 

I don't and i'm sure its a long shot, but next time i'll stop by the dealer i'll ask.

I was talking about this very subject with a local Subaru only shop owner (been doing it for over 30yrs now) and without hesitation he said " The EA81, and EA71 are 2 of the moste reliable engins EVER BUILT"....."The EJ engines are good and the EA82's are to, but they can't hold a candle to the EA's (81 & 71) I have customers with over 500.000 on the original bottom end and they are still running strong!"

I thought that was a good endorcement from a guy in the biz of fixin' these things for 30+ years.
