Your trans should be fine with bigger tires and a lift they are pretty tough. It's the power loss from running bigger tires that will hurt. Looks like a nice solid car worth doing some mods on. Dual range 5sp and ej conversion are quite common on these just look around on this site.
Thank You Nipper. My wife's 01 OB does this sometimes and I was thinking it was a ABS related problem. This describes the symptoms exactly and gives the cause. So spraying some WD-40 in the brake booster vac line will help this?
You might be able to clear up the glass with some non abrasive car polish and a buffing wheel. I have done this when glass cleaner just won't remove the road film.
Thanks. I had a 92 Legacy Wagon and it had a separate tank for the rear washer that's why I was wondering as I looked everywhere for it back there:o. Must have a plugged line somewhere. As for the abs fuse or relay I still need to find it.
2 Questions for a 01 Outback H6 Wagon. 1 Where is the rear washer fluid tank filler?
2 Where is the fuse to disable the ABS system? Thanks for any help.
I have seen some really nice 01-04 H6 Outbacks on e-bay for around the same price. I own a 01 and will have a hard time going back to the 4cyl engine. No timing belts to break, No head gasket problems. Just my opinion on this. I am not saying the 4cyl is garbage I just wanted to let you know whats out there.
same problem with the EA81 transplant in my 87 GL Turbo 3dr. Unsure of the year but does the same thing. After it stalls out it is a real pain to start back up. Anyone else have this problem and know what it is?
Any idea what years will work for the spring donations? I don't want to be seen around Hondas and Escorts too much! Please post some pics of the Escort springs up front. Thanks.
I have used 3M medium rubbing compound and lots of rubbing. After they are nice and smooth I apply some wax to slow the oxidation process. I have yet to try the cleaning kit. It sounds much easier.
92 Legacy 2.2 NA 215,000 Hard miles 91 Legacy 2.2 Turbo 205,000 miles. Both good. Had a 91 Legacy 2.2 NA parts car with 190,000 miles internal HG leak possibly caused by lack of proper care (coolant leak at waterpump).
My 92 Legacy and 91 Legacy both leak from the valve covers most noticeable just after driving and while sitting at idle. Leaks right on the exhaust. It's time for my 200,000 mile gasket change. Just a place to look. Good luck.
Welcome to the biggest and best family of Subaru owners around. I agree with the idea to check for spark. If no spark it is possible a non operating crank sensor would cause a no spark condition along with a bad coilpack.
Also did you have the timing belt off at all? Best of luck.
