Was it an automatic?

Do a search on the net...shouldn't be to hard to find them all. Or even search eBay...most are on there. I can't think of any site that has a picture of them all.

215,000 miles on my Legacy. Clutch and timing belt around 180,000 - 200,000 miles. Oil changed every 3,000 miles. Couldn't really afford the maintence...so it didn't get much. Nothing ever failed. I was 10 years old when my mom bought it...it had some stuff done to it...but not any of the scheduled things. Change the oil, don't go over 3000 RPMs...it will last a long long time.

I thought it was a T30, too...but the one allen wrench worked right on the other side. I'll get it out eventully.

but how would I go about getting the screw in part of the bolt out after I drill the head off?

hrrm...I should drill a small hole...thread a screw in so that when it goes in all the way it will be making the bolt go left to loosen it out...think that would work?

Ok....so I was taking off the steering wheel to put in my new cruise control switch...and the one bolt/screw on the right side was stripped. I tried differnt bits...pounding stuff...etc...just made it worse. Its on a 96 OBW. Anyone know a way to get it out? A drill? Should I take it to a mechanic or something?

I'm going to be installing a new cruise control switch in my Outback. I'd like to disable the air bag, is it possible to just unhook the negative battery cable and pull the fuse that controls the air bag?

small rocks getting flung up?

I used a spark plug socket with my fingers on mine :-/

A buddy of mine worked at a Walmart auto center in Tampa, Florida and he'd tell me that they'd forget to drain oil and put 5 more quarts in on top of the old 5 or they'd drain transmission fluid and stuff. Sears seems to do it right...and dealers...but changing oil isn't to hard...but if you are in a hurry or etc. i'd suggest Sears or a dealer/good mechanic.

When the front tire was blown all were replaced then, right? Might need aligment...but if it ONLY occours around 70 and not anything over it it might not be...I dunno. Perhaps when she had the fenderbender there might have been some bent things that were not fixed.

Subaru filters are just Puralotor filters. If you care for your car you will NOT go to Jiffy Lube, Walmart, and etc. Do it yourself or go to a dealer or decent mechanic.

Sweet man! Subaru gas gauges seem to be weird...at least in both my Legacys. When on E there is still like 5 - 6 gallons left.

My 96 OBW has the tweeters there. Came with the car when I got it. I dunno if they really work to well :-/

Was it an auto? If it is...I wonder if it would have gotten stolen if it was a stick. And do you own a gun? You should.

I hate when people drive with their parking lights on...they are moving awfully fast to be parked :-p

You sound pretty cocky...but that might be me... I hit it all the time. I wipe down my dash, wheel, etc with a soft cloth every few days. And I acctully drive my car...I reset the tripometer each time...so about twice per week. It happens...and some people misplace the manual...its all good.

heh, the insurance comp. will prob. concider it totaled.

Carry a can of gas and let your car run out.

hrrm...the gauge in my Legacy has stoped working all together...to fix that I filled the tank up all the way....like almost overflowing...and it has worked since. Maybe you just need new sensors for the tank.

isn't the WRX a sports sedan? o_0

Get some rocks to prop behind the tires.

My CC stopped working. Vaccuum tubes and things ok....I dunno. I hate it. I speed now. Some day it'll get fixed...
