I'm pretty sure that I remember reading somewhere that the bolts did not need to be re-torqued since you stretch them out during the torque procedure and then tighten them down. EDIT: here it is http://endwrench.com/images/pdfs/2.2Liter.pdf on page 16 "2.2L Engine Reassembly" 5th bullet do...

It is a sport utility vehicle afterall. My friend's timing belt on her 91 had a pretty good crack in it last time I took it off... I put it back on because we were planning on going back in there soon to fix some things. (yeah right) She doesnt really think about it anymore... As long as it runs, sh...

I have removed them on a 96 sedan which should be the same as yours... It involved taking out the rear seatback in order to get the back deck cover off which the speakers are under.

Because they will data log everything about your vehicle, mod it, they'll know, speeding when in an accident, they'll know, they decide they want to know where you are so they can arrest you, hmm they know that too because it's supposed to have functions kinda like "on star" so they can t...

She let me drive it most of the 2 hour drive home. We got it out of town because the dealer here really sucks.

The only person without a Subaru in my family is my dad. He's never owned a foreign car in his life and I doubt he ever will. :x

All it takes is one tree to fall on a line, and power is out for a while. I hear stuff hitting the ro...

Used to happen to me occasionally when quickly pulling out of a parallel parking space. The rapid acceleration and sharp turning of the wheel really made it hard to steer for some reason. It hasn't done it in a while, but then again, I don't parallel park much anymore. I'm sure I could get it to hap...

Noise at full lock is normal... Once you get to full lock, just back it off a little. It won't make much of a difference in turning radius. You can even do that while doing doughnuts.

Just for the hell of it, check your crankshaft pulley and bolt. See if the bolt is tightened enough. Even though you should still be able to get a spark with a loose bolt, your symptoms sound like they could be caused the pulley.... Might as well check it to clear that off the list of possibilities....
