Went to by a Chiltons, Hyanes, or similar manual for my 97 Impreza and it isn't made! While I can figure out just fine how to change my spark plugs, things like the timing belt might be nice to have a manual handy. What do people do with cars that don't have manuals available.

 

Speaking of all this, changing my plugs would have been hard had I not read about what to remove to make it easy. Did my tune up, new plugs, new fuel filter, new air filter, new PCV valve, and a nice sea foam treatment and things are running great. There is no way to warn anybody about just how much smoke will be produced when you suck that stuff into your intake, WOW!!! It clears up fairly quick, but I felt sorry (and a little embarressed) for the folks behind me in traffic for a few miles.

Get the Haynes manual for the 1990-1998 Legacy. The mechanical layout is very similar. Engines are the same.

 

 

(There is one error in it, the knock sensor doesn't sit in a coolant passage like Haynes says, otherwise I haven't found fault with this book.)
