Hello,

 

I am a new member and have some questions for y'all.

 

I have a 1996 Legacy with the crank seal leaking. Never had one of these apart and would like to know the correct procedure for removing the timing belt.

 

How to align it etc...

 

Thanks

Welcome to the board!

 

You have come to the right place!

 

Having said that.....I can't advise you on changing the belt. I've never done it on a Subaru.

 

I did the belt on my Trooper and I started by removing the front half of the car :banghead: Hope thats' not the case for you!

 

But I'd bet someone here will have the answer.

 

Welcome,

Glenn

82 SubaruHummer---no timing belt :-p

It's pretty simple but we need to know whats under the hood. 2.2 or 2.5?

 

 

Welcome aboard...

Sorry, It is a 2.2L.

Bravo...If you are good at throwing the wrench then you should be able to do the job yourself with the help of Josh (legacy777) he helped me with my oilpump seals and reinstalling the timing belt.

Yeah I am an automotive technician, however I don't have any books that show the procedure for this new of a car.

 

I own a small used car dealership and this is one of the two that I recently picked up to resell.

 

I think Josh can help out with his diagrams and info.

 

Appreciate the feedback.
