I don’t seem to be able to get an accurate reading on my dipstick. I have a 96 Outback with an EJ25. the motor is a replacement. Are there different oil pans?

I did replace the thermostat but I don’t remember what it looked like if I don’t get the desired result by burping it I’ll pull the gooseneck off and take a look at it

Got the job done thank you all for your help. Now the temp gauge is pegging out hot. I didn’t notice that happening before. I’m going to burn the Chiltons at my next bonfire.

Concave is driver side convex is passenger side

Moved it now the cam marks are off but close

Thank you I am going to dive in right now and get back to you shortly

Hello All I changed the timing belt and screwed it up. I replaced all the idlers, the water pump and the tensioner.rotated the engine by hand numerous times to double check for interference and there is none. I failed to line up the cam marks correctly I am ready to remove and reinstall the belt when I turn the crank so #1 is at TDC the key way is not at 6 o’clock more like 3:30-4:00. I am using a chilton manual and the guide that came with the continental belt kit. It cautions against moving the cam pulleys. I will need to move them just slightly. From the photo can you tell me if the crank is in the correct position
