Our local sub dealer is telling my Grandaughter that the leak from her
Legasy is from the engine oil pump and that it will cost a thousand dollars
to repair or replace the pump. Guess my thought was that the oil pump was
internal and shouldn't show leakage on the outside of the engine. I know
there aare folks in this group who know if that's a likely diagnosis. Info
appriciated
Hello all!
I'm calling on your expertise to help me diagnose and fix my 95 Legacy
Wagon.
My brother is a mecanic without a garage, and not a Subaru expert, but
if he can be pointed in the right direction,
it would really help.
The Story: I was driving home from an outcity trip. Stopped to pee,
get back in the car, reverse from the parking spot, bet back in first
gear, go about 2-3 feet forward, and the car just dies. This was not a
stall. Engine was warm. Tried to restart, but not even a cough, nada.
The starter is almost new. Had her towed home. (Thank goodness for
CAA) Once we were home, we checked the gas pump (Had issues with that
on my previous Subaru.) The gas makes it to the engine just fine. My
brother pulled a spark plug and checked, no spark. He looked at the
fuse boxes, and they...
Just purchased a used 2007 Subaru Legacy 2.5i wagon. The display on
the dash has the ability to display "instantaneous fuel consumption"
and average fuel consumption, both in liters/100 km. The average fuel
consumption reading is tied to the trip odometer, so that is where the
calculation gets its total distance travelled. However, how does the
calculation get total fuel consumed, given that the fuel consumption
rate is a continuously changing variable? How accurate would these
fuel consumption algorithm be?

In the US, "Radio Shack" has started selling silver conductive paint for circuit board
repair primarily. It works just as good on defroster windscreens.
Like the other fellow said, find the break(s) using a voltmeter, clean off the protective strip
covering layer for a good connection, mask both upper and lower sides of the line with tape,
then paint it on and let dry. Be patient. Don't paint longer stripe than needed since resistance of
paint will be different from resistance (per inch) of original stripes. For short repairs, this works
great.
Radio Shack / Tandy is also on the web, so should be easy to find if you don't have
Radio Shacks where you are.

Yeah, right! In fact the claim is "up to 50%%", which is to say, it could be,
and likely will be,
zero or less. Their definition of "new" is rather flexible.
Curious parties might like to search on Brown's Gas (2H202).
One link of particular interest (and places this "new" idea where it
belongs) is http://www.phact.org/e/bgas.htm
Yep, that's my problem in the Subject. I had to disconnect the battery
tonight. Possibly the timer is defective that turns out the lights when the
the ignition is turned off while the lights are on. It may have been
precipitated by an earlier event. A woman had drained her battery and asked
if I had jumpers. I did and got her started. At the next stop, I noticed my
lights were still on when I came back to the car. I thought I might have
turned them on with the remote somehow. When I got home the same thing
happened in the garage. They wouldn't go out after 5-10 minutes. Comments?
Solution?
My mechanic said my 1998 Legacy's tapping sound (which goes away warmed up)
may be piston slap. It has 136,000 miles on the 2.2 liter engine. No
troubles with car except for the light tapping noise. Is this a common issue
for Subaru's? I read on one website that the piston slap issue usually does
not effect engine wear that much. Is there any kind of engine treatment
fluid that helps piston slap? Any information appreciated.
