Ok thank you for the assistance it is greatly appreciated

I don't remember what it looked like and I don't know the mileage the previous owner had lied a lot about the car to me. I have put new plugs and wires on it in the last 1000 miles and still get the code I can't remember if there was any oil on the old plug wires. I don't think there was but I'm not even sure if the last owner put on a new coil pack either to be honest

Looking for some info on how to do this and what is the preferred gasket set to use and like the older engines do I need gasket sealer and any recommendations on the proper tool for scraping the old gasket away

Good morning looking for some advice. My 02 forester has a misfire code on cylinder 4 when you reset the ecu it takes about 150 miles to come back. I've put new plugs wires and a coil pack on it and still have the issues any advice on what may be causing this ?

Anyone know of any companies that make a brush bar or bull bar for a 2002 forester

What if any stock hoods with the scoops already in them such as wrx or even imprezza hoods will fit on a 2002 forester? I like the looks of those scoops and I have seen newer foresters with these style scoops. I just don't want to cut my hood to fit them in is all.

Just want to thank everyone who responded with answers I put new plugs and wires still had issue. So I did I test and unplugged my front o2 sensor and car ran great. So I replaced it which its called the air fuel ration sensor or something similar to that and the car ran just fine. No issues with it no so again I just wanna say thank you to everyone for the quick help and tips on what to look for

Thanks for the tip it worked just fine to get them out.

Ok thank you Montana Tom

Question guys. I was doin a spark plug wire change on my Forrester and my wire boots would not go into the plug heads . So I inspected the old wires I pulled off and discovered that the metal connector inside the boot that slips onto the plug has stuck to the head of the plug. It pulled the sleeve right off the connector piece itself. Any suggestions on what works to remove that inside metal conducter that connects to the plug? Any advice is helpfull never ran into this problem before.

Ok thanks guys appreciate the advice

I have a brand new set of spark plug wires made by xact. And they do not thru the spark plug boot gasket to reach the spark plugs. Any input or ideas on wires that work? And anyone used these wires in the past and have them not fit ?

Just wandering what filter everyone recommends for a 2.5 L 2002 forester
