Noob needs help with hoses
First off I'd to say thank you for having such a great site for the first gen legacys. I am now a proud owner of a 94 2.2 turbo auto:( and need assistance with a hose issue. The prior owner had replaced the head but while doing so, he did it cold and broke multiple hoses. I saw the diagrams for the vacuum lines and know it will assist me in this problem but i am hoping someone has a pic of a stock set-up so i can see what the hoses looked like. He has a buddy who can fab hoses given something to go off of. I was also curious to know if there are any hoses kits available for purchase as all the turbos at the junkyards here (albuquerque) are completely stripped down. we just put in a new fuel pump and started for the first time in months. Oil is leaking out of one of the missing hoses onto the exhaust. Last, since it's a new head, is there a break period for it? Thanks!!

Re: Noob needs help with hoses
1) the plastic bits the hoses connect to -- either have to get new from the dealer or try a junkyard... but likely they'll be brittle. some you can eliminate, others are useful to have.
2) the tubing isn't regular heater hose, as that'll break down from the heat/oil quickly ( I speak from experience). so you'll either need to get expensive power steering tubing that can withstand it or the OEM precut hoses from subaru.
3) maybe someone has a high res stock setup around, but in the meanwhile here is my modded one so you have some idea:
