63BRAVO Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 Hello, I am a new member and have some questions for y'all. I have a 1996 Legacy with the crank seal leaking. Never had one of these apart and would like to know the correct procedure for removing the timing belt. How to align it etc... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet82 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 Welcome to the board! You have come to the right place! Having said that.....I can't advise you on changing the belt. I've never done it on a Subaru. I did the belt on my Trooper and I started by removing the front half of the car Hope thats' not the case for you! But I'd bet someone here will have the answer. Welcome, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer---no timing belt :-p 01 Forester---new timing belt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy777 Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 I've got factory manual instructions and pictures from my timing belt change. However my server is down for some reason. When it comes back up, I'll post the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coloradosubarules Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Bravo...If you are good at throwing the wrench then you should be able to do the job yourself with the help of Josh (legacy777) he helped me with my oilpump seals and reinstalling the timing belt.

Thanks, Yeah I am an automotive technician, however I don't have any books that show the procedure for this new of a car. I own a small used car dealership and this is one of the two that I recently picked up to resell. I think Josh can help out with his diagrams and info. Appreciate the feedback.
