vintagejoe Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Manufacturer recall/service bulletin issued Recall #WWP991 Engine cooling system conditioner. Just what is this stuff??? Is it "stop leak" type product? Is my 1998 Legacy sedan prone to this same ailment? Should I get this product for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerFahrer Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 I'm not positive what the stuff is, but it's a preventive measure to help keep your Phase II EJ25 from blowing a headgasket like the Phase I EJ25 loves to do so much. It might help your Phase I EJ25 Legacy, but you'd probably have to buy the solution, I don't think a dealer will put it in that car under any recall/warranty.

cookie Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Subaru had a small problem with a sealer failing on phase 2s. this caused a usually small external leak. The sealer is just a stop leak product. I have had it in my 99 Forester with phase 2 for more than a year and I don't have any leaks, but who knows if I would have had one anyway?

Sweet82 Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 I had my 01 Forester done on this same recall. It's a silicone sealer for the cooling system to prevent those small leaks. There are some old threads on the subject... Good Luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
