Looks like she will remain so for a while. I got screwed by financial aide via and obscure side rule that isnt clearly mentioned. So the money I was expecting to pay rent and fix my car went the way of the dodo.

 

When I have some free time I am going to start digging around and see if its just a freeze plug or if I really broke something badly.

 

The good news is my new car is getting nearly 40mpg, and Im getting lots of practice using a manual. so I can drive ~290 miles for 20 bucks or less per week. The amazing thing is, I think the engineers who designed this car (97 saturn sl1) must have looked at the older subarus. The engine compartment is clean and organized, very easy designed in access (but you cant move the hood support). They even used a chain instead of a belt for the timing (no offense EA 82 and up guys and gals, I am an old smallblock and EA81 fan, i dont trust belts).

 

Anyway, when I know more about my subaru I will let you all know.
