Ok well sounds like a small project like head gaskets become a complete overhaul if its on the stand rebuild it right cheers

ok well its a 2000 legasy outback 2.5 did the 2000 model come with otional motors ie: twin cam or single? im not a subee guy we got it new and seviced it myself my brother has a nappa so never been back to the dealer.guess i could buy a manual

Is there any special tools needed to replace head gaskets on the 2.5? I have 200k on the motor and the coolant is droping like most others but @ 2oo k I got way more miles than most. Also can you tell me the tourqe sequence and specs as well as the valve clearance specs? I concidder myself a good mech. but never cracked a subaru any helpfull advice would be greatly apreciated.
