PB Blaster is an aerosol can of very effective penetrating oil/solvent. It works great, especially if you can give a little impact to the stuck together assembly. Strike the part with a soft metal hammer,or a plastic hammer filled with metal shot ( like BBs ). Back up the part you are striking with something heavy so the force of the blow is applied to the stuck part. The vibrations and the PB Blaster will do the job. If not then you must consider the 'flame wrench' !

Hello everyone! I'm new to Subaru, but just picked up a '95 legacy wagon w/93,000 and I'm wondering if any good or harm is done to the Tranny if I select "3" instead of D when tooling around town at 40mph and under? Would it save some internal componants from locking/unlocking as we drive at a speed where Overdrive 4th would engage? Is the 4th gear ratio an overdrive? In this gear, does the torque converter lock up above a certain speed? Thankyou for responding. John
