  1. ..... I can't find the picture I was going to link to. But midway down the side of the bellhousing is a small hole, about 10mm. You can put a large screwdriver through the hole and turn the crank until the screwdriver slides into one of the holes in the flex plate. Now the crank is locked and you can tighten the crank bolt. credits to Canubaru for pic O.
  2. I "assumed" the harness side pulled out. I will have to pull it in the morning and see what goes to where on the sensor side. O.
  3. Not a big deal. Sometimes they change wire colors between years. As long as the left wire on top is the white one, all else follows in sequence. O.
  4. This is from a 96. Seems to be the same.. As shown with locking clip on top, Left is yellow with a red stripe, right is white and the bottom is black. O.
  5. 11044AA642. Use any online vendor for parts lookup numbers. also http://opposedforces.com/parts/ O.
  6. Follow procedure for programming remote even though you don't have one . See http://www.cars101.com/subaru/keyless.html. Let car run. The battery must be charged. if it dies or is disconnected, you'll have to do it each time. Should fix the issue. O.
  7. After looking more closely, the option given will not work for you. The header portion is much larger and a flange change alone will not mate the two pieces. This would work for the D but not the R version. Headers are available, but expensive. http://www.raptorsc.com.au/kits.php?id=70 For research see:http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/header-h6-17345p2.html O.
  8. can't find a ref pic of rear of block, but unless you see a lot of oil, more than an inch wide from the rear main, I'd leave it. The other plate is the access for wrist pins. there is an O ring in there. Some replace the O ring, others just ultra grey the unit. The upper left of the new metal plate should have an arrow next to bolt hole. This is where the special screw goes. O. Found a link. Engine is DOHC, but the rear is the same, just scroll down. http://www.rs25.com/forums/f105/t74366-tearing-down-ejxx-block-pictures-head-removal-splitting-block.html
  9. Option. Locate an 04 or 05 with Ca. emissions. This pzev used the exhaust headers from the H6 3.0, but with flanges to match the 2.5. Pic below is of an 04. O.
  10. Some of the 04 production for the Ca. emissions standards were pzev but not marked on the body as such. IIRC only the late 04 and some 05 were of this irregular (H6 twin header design) exhaust type. O.
  11. Alternator 08-09 Legacy and 08-09 OB. AC Legacy 07-09 ,OB 07-09 All with H6 3.0 Dealer parts are over the top. see:http://subarupartsforyou.com/cp_partlistbymod.php?model=Legacy&subcat=Air+Conditioning+Compressor Link is iffy, but http://opposedforces.com/parts/legacy/ O.
  12. Try Feder's Subaru, Middletown NY. 845 344-3100. Ask for Dave the Service Mgr. They have always been helpful. O.
  13. Once the caliper bolts are removed there are two 17mm bolts that attach the bracket. PB and you may need a breaker bar. Make sure you use 6 pt sockets. You can hang the caliper from the strut spring. Rotors may be stuck, but gentle tapping should free it. If not, there are two threaded holes (8X1.25). Using a two inch length bolt will be enough to force the rotor off. Anti seize bolts and the center ring of the rotor on install. O.
  14. ^+1 If they find it hard to cut, just have them torch it til red, then a simple twist will take it right off. Tis why whenever I heat mine (not to red) I use a vise grip to hold the bung and a wrench on the O2. O.
  15. Great! Also great to see a solution for a problem. Only @ a 1/4 of posters report resolution. O.
  16. If you remove the egr unit, you can remove the studs that go into the IM and will give you working room.At least for the top one. That brass nut LOVES to round off. Everytime I have to do one it's an adventure. Wound up using the above procedure and a pipe wrench to get that one off. Didn't have to do the lower(lucky me) as I was only removing the IM. O.
  17. Don't know the actual differences, however you can reverse lookup and check. If you click on a part in opposed forces, you will then see a usage info link. Clicking that will show all models that part fits. Otherwise you can go to a Suby vendor website and go to the particular part and without using any filters, you can see the part number for all Subys, then you can narrow your search. O.
  18. Think you may be misguided here. Bosch O2 sensors are fine. They come a lot as OEM units. In addition Bosch is the originator of the O2 sensor, not a fly by night mfg. O.
  19. 90% of the time a 420 is caused by a bad front sensor. I would google this code specifically for Subaru and go through those checks first. Cats can go bad, but usually they last they life of the car. If it was me, I'd replace the front sensor. O.
  20. From your photo I would keep an eye on that water bypass pipe. It has a tendency to rust through at the T which goes to the TB. O.
  21. If the rear main is not really leaking, leave it. A little seepage is ok. O.
