  1. I'm walking around Kauai and see the county has several Crosstrek Hybrid plugged in at the city hall. Anyone have one? GD are they worth a lick?
  2. 2006 5-Speed Subaru Baja -- RARE - $4,800 2006 160K, - CO https://boulder.craigslist.org/cto/d/hygiene-speed-subaru-baja-rare/7315449537.html
  3. Your meter will lie to you, unless you are checking the circuit under LOAD! Check out LOADpro. A great addition to your toolbox. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYiY1c_b06w
  4. I like the single disk units even more. The multi disk changers are more to go wrong. I have several and the under seat base speaker.
  5. Got that as well. There is a metal bushing it goes through, washer end goes up against the engine bracket.
  6. Make sure you burp the system when you fill it! Subaru engines like to lock in air bubbles.
  7. Plastic tank to aluminum radiator core gaskets often leak a little. The vent plug has a rubber gasket on it, it's all that needed. Don't over tighten it!
  8. Might have a Subaru original for you, good or to have rebuilt. I'd need a picture of the top plug. I'm in Colorado Springs. USPS Flat rate $18. Larry
  9. Do it right the First time. Sometimes I want to finish the work but know a fresh look in the AM would be best!
  10. I cut a used Subaru Timing belt and wrapped it around the cam gear 1 3/4 times and took the other end to the crankshaft and looped it around so the teeth of the belt locked together with a vise grips as a clamp. I had to cut 4 teeth off the belt so it would slip between the cam gears but that was easy and no harm. Worked like a champ to break them loose and lock them to torque the bolt to 58 ft lbs.
  11. Neither of those were off. I'm going to recheck the cams on Monday. I don't know how they would have gotten out of position, but worth another look.
