Hello I'm new to this board but not new to Subarus. We just picked up a 1991 Legacy L minimal rust for the area I live in . It is an AWD Sedan 5 speed with 184,000 on it. I was wondering if I should change the timing belts since I have no history on service. It just seems to purr and it leaks no oil what so ever. I will post some pics soon.

Thanks, Joe

Congrats! Welcome.

if you've got nothing but free time and money, then yes you should change the timing belt (only one of these puppy's ) It's a pretty easy job.

Joe, glad you made it over here You'll find this community to be as welcoming and knowledgeable as the XT6 group.

As I said on the USMB, do your timing belts and while you're at it, replace all the front oil seals. Then you can be 100% sure it doesn't leak any oil.

And maybe even the water pump too, since I had to take my timing belt back off not even 5K miles after replacing it to replace my leaking water pump.
