Hello Subaru World

 

I'm Matt and I recently purchased, for $500, this lovely 1998 Legacy Outback. It's got some issues, most I've got squared away.

 

This is my first Subaru and hopefully I'll find some guidance on a few things I need to take care of. So far I like it, I love the versatility of a wagon. Makes a nice pair with my 1998 Volvo V70R wagon.  

 

Thanks

Matt

welcome aboard, this forum is probably one of the most technically astute and practical boards I've seen.  if you're into that kind of stuff you'll like it here.

i'll be in atlanta next week, looking forward to that!

Thank you.

 

It's going to be a long project bringing her up to good working order, but it seems that every car I buy is a project.

 

So far I was able to pretty much knock out an annoying hesitation issue I was having, mainly with the help of a knock sensor and a used MAF sensor. A used fuel pump also fixed my long cranking issue.

 

Next is rear struts, they are totally SHOT.

Then a timing belt, water pump, pulleys...etc.
