Well I think I found the problem the belt tensioner seems to not be doing its job and is allowing it to jump timing right away. Going to get a new one, this has happened to this vehicle twice now and had to take a long look a possible problems. Thanks for all the great help! I will post with hopefully a running Boobaru.

So I am going back thru timing marks etc. and hopefully I just did it wrong but marks seemed to be off again. should the white marks and all timing marks align every other revoloution? would like to know if that is true.

Rally Suby must not have an answer. As to the discussion on hear about interference and non to the best of my knowledge all 2.2 subs are non interference motors. the 2.5 was the first interference motor produced! If this is wrong please enlighten me! Next I'm a newbie to this site but not to Subaru could you offer a little more than the valve are bent canned response. Thanks

Belt did not break just wouldn't start drove it home the evening before! I have been in this motor several times water pump and new belt before with no problems always fired right up when I was done.

My 97 legacy stopped running timing belt jumped could I possibly have timing off 180 all the marks line up?
