Mileage? Maintenance history? Start with the basics: Check fluid levels, fill and or change fluids as necessary. If you don't have a Subaru maintenance book you can download the Factory Service Manual. Fill the Tank with the best gas you can get. A can of Heat will help with any water in the tank. NGK copper core plugs and NGK or Subaru plug wires. Get some miles on it and then see what else it needs: Timing Belt, seals, gaskets.... The 95 2.2 is a great engine.

The Laurelwood Public House in PDX is great! You by the Workhorse IPA and I'll do the work/subaru training, when the weather warms up.

often, starting, then dieing is due to a failed/misplaced hose between the intake and the Intake Air Control Valve.

There's a tiny round nylon donut that snaps to the bottom of the pivot on the 4MT. That's certainly turned to powder. IDK if you can still buy them from Subaru or not. Might be able to 3D print one..... The entire 4MT linkage was terrible and the design went away with the 5MT and besides the extra gear, lighter weight, greater strength, and lower low range of the 5MT, the significantly improved linkage is probably 50% of why I always did the swap. Just did one for a customer last week. He tracked down all the parts and brought me everything including the car. Jerry still makes the cross-member kits. We had all the usual 40 year old vehicle issues. I don't know what he was into the parts for on his end but it was around $2k for us to perform the swap for him. We did EVERYTHING including transferring the timing marks to the EA82 flywheel and all the wiring to make it work like stock. GD

what lmdew said.. check fluids - fill or change as needed. Oil probably is the biggest one to think about changing right away. you can find the factory service manual here: http://jdmfsm.info/Auto/Japan/Subaru/
