Default Hello fellow owners Newbie here

Hey guys, I just wanted to introduce myself. I recently bought a new (old) 1997 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport.

I was in the market for something affordable and AWD.

Here’s a bit about the car.

I found it for $700 and she was a bit rough, usual rust around the rear fenders (common here in Canada).

A couples dents, sun faded paint and not so pretty, however functional.

When it comes to the drivetrain it’s a 2.2L with the automatic transmission.

When buying I did the usual inspection and noticed numerous oil leaks, however the oil looked good and head gaskets were not a problem.

So I bought car, got it home and went to work. I put $500 of parts into it and 6 1/2” hours of my own labor and she’s running fine with no apparent leaks at the moment.

Here’s a list of all the stuff I have done so far... Done over the course of last week.

Air filter
Knock sensor
Driver visor
Rear passenger window
LED lights all around
Oil change
Spark plugs
Spark plug wires
Valve cover gasket
Fuel filterPower steering pump seal kit
Rear window defogger
Locking gas cap
Oil pressure sensor
O-ring oil fill tube
Front right running light assembly
Rewire radio(2 speakers not connected behind radio) (one speaker not connected in door)
