99 Forester has the 2.5SOHC and as such the HG's will leak externally in this series. SOA's "fix" was their "conditioner" (read stop leak). Will last an indeterminate mileage n this condition. Just watch coolant levels and signs of seepage. Unless you have nothing "better" to do, I'd leave it alone. I'm retired, so when I pull an engine I tend to do everything, for I have nothing but time and little sense. O.

Looking here should help. http://opposedforces.com/parts/impreza/ O.

]Probably pump. Check voltage at pump terminals. If 12 v, then pump is problem Alternatively you can jump pump to battery and see if it works. Easy fix in either case. Can't help with seat tho. Attached is schematic for seat and a link to FSM for your car. http://www.main.experiencetherave.com/subaru_manual_scans/ Power Seat System.pdf O.

Swap plug with any that will reach. Clear code. If code returns to the other cylinder then it is the wire. If not it could be either a coil/injector. Reistance values for plug wires is 5.12 - 12.34 Kohms. See attached for coil check. O. Service Procedure Ignition Coil.pdf

Suby oil pressure mil is set too low for comfort.3/4 psi IIRC. We can only keep a check on our level. If the level is good and you are getting flashing, then something may be up with the pump/the sensor.. In case you didn't find it, the oil system section starts on p 341 of the pdf I sent a link to.

Need to post more info. 2.5/3.0. In either case, here is a link to 2008 fsm. You'll have to look. Its a big pdf (5800+ pages), but it has all models. http://people.csail.mit.edu/ilh/vacation/ O.

After the pinch bolt was opened a little, used PB, then put castle nut back on but not all the way tight, and finally a 4 ft spoon bar. Pryed it right out. On a previous ball joint,the arm pried down, so I used a chisel at an angle on the BJ to break the rust loose, then reattched castle nut some then pried. O.

Can't comment on price, but I would be concerned about the rear tire wear. Did the po not be concerned that this was an awd car and should have replaced all four tires at once? Therefore this car has been consistently run with mismatched tires. Just something to consider. O.

There is an auto store item called guaranteed to pass or something like that for emissions testing. Check your local stores. O.

Part of the self check. About 4 or 5 times. If it flashes 16 times. Then there is a some fault., O.

^+1 You can usually get a set of WRX 16' rims for cheap from seller on NASIOC. Then any tire you decide on. O.

No Forester here, but all of the others I've seen, the evap is to the right of the heater care and can be accessed after you remove the glove box. O.

When was the water pump last replaced? Thermostat? T belt and idlers? Upper hot and cold lower sounds (in this case) more like a sticking thermo or water pump starting to fail. Mileage? O.

There should be a toggle switch or push button under the edge of trim by left knee. See: http://www.cars101.com/ and go to programming remote secttion (even tho' you don't have have one) and that will work until you disconnect the battery again. O.

From bottom of yellow portion to tip is 18.5" O.

Breaker bar against the frame or against the ground and blip of the starter has never failed for me. O.

When you installed the tps, did you adjust so that it idles corectly? Large IAC to intake hose on securely? Check egr valve hose to the BPT. None of these will give a misfire code tho. Make sure plug is securely in socket, Move wire from 1 to 2 and see if misfire follows. All I can think of. O.

Back Pressure Transducer part # 6 in diagram. I'd check it anyway. Check the operation of the egr valve itself. As the tube clogs, flow is reduced and the egr valve doesn't operate like it should. O.

Timing Belt

IIRC it has Kevlar in its construction. O. -
You may have an egr line that is starting to block up. Specifically the small one that goes from the BPT to the manifold. Check the niipple end on the bottom of the BPT also. It gets very hard with age and is easy to split. Have you been getting low egr flow codes? O.
