Great diversity in your channel videos this year. Your 2nd gen Subaru videos are keeping my 2001 Outback going. Great work Mr. Subaru 👍
For anyone wondering how tell if the spark plugs are the original plugs from factory - @ 6:52 of the video you will see that marking on the plug the little white triangle you will only get that on oem spark plugs some manufactures have different shapes but typically it is a triangle
I've checked spark plugs at the recommended replacement intervals on various makes of cars and motorcycles, and the gaps are almost always still within spec. I usually just replace them anyway, since I have new plugs on hand, but for my late-model WRX with pricier iridium plugs, I plan to run them well past the 60k mile interval if they're still in good shape. This video make me feel a bit better about doing this.
I always recommend a throttle body cleaning with plugs and wires and, if the plugs are WAY too old like those, I also recommend a decarbon to get as much of the junk out of the cylinders as possible. You'd be surprised how much better a tired engine runs after that.
Cleaned the TB off camera.
Just junked a 9th silverado from the 2000s. All failed frames junk yards in PA are full of them.
That's what happens when you don't maintain your vehicle properly or at all in this case. Can you please do a video on the tuneup of this type of truck?
Lol. Even I saw the crack in the serpentine belt. 😮
Talk about getting your money's worth....
My dad's Forester somehow ran on one good sparkplug for awhile. It was crazy how blown the others were when I replaced them
Iv seen plenty worse, when I bought my rally car (previously my daily) it wasnt running right, gave it a good service & discovered the probes on 2 of the 4 spark plugs had no probe left for the spark to jump to & the others about to break off
How many miles were on them
@@fredharvey2720 I'll have to look over the service records to find the maintenance gaps, but I wouldnt be surprised if it was over 150K
Excellent video. Like to see more of these. 👍 👍 👍
Great vid. Digging the history was at least as meaningful as the generic code. Mechanics at it's best
Actually, the triage of the condition was awesome. I've traced problems in the wrong direction.
That Baja is suffering from gigantism
That's a lot of deferred maintenance.
But as they say "Chevys run badly longer than most cars run."
Hello MrSubaru1387 I got a quick question and hopefully you can answer for me because I recently got my first Subaru and the previous owner didn’t shed much light for me. I bought a 2004 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS but the engine has been swapped to a non turbo JDM 2.0 with around 60k miles. When I look at the stamp on the block I’m about 97% sure it’s EJ20 I can’t seem to find a straight answer on forums to these 3 questions.
1. What grade Fuel should I be using?
2. What oil type should I use
3. What coolant type should I use
4. What oil filter should I use
Hopefully you can help I wanna keep this car in tiptop shape because I’m already in love with it.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
P.S someone on a Reddit forum said oil type depends on climate lol I live in Kentucky if that helps
It's burning oil bad...the oil dilutes the mixture and lowers the octane which does that to the spark plug porcelain. Need to find out where the oil is coming from...rings or valve guides or both.
I recently went through something similar. 94 chevy c2500. Got it from some ford guys who thought it was a great idea to tune it up with ford parts. Dead miss on 2 cylinders. Pulled the autolite plugs and 2 were not the same number as the other 6. They were long enough so that the piston was able to kiss the plug and leave them with no gap. Another story 2005 gmc 2500 running hot under load on interstate such as pulling a trailer. 375k on the original plugs. Plugs solved the issue
This is a great video. I have a quick question for you Mr. Subaru: Lets say the air conditioning pump on a 2013 4 cylinder DOHC subaru motor has leaked out all of the lubricant or has been overfilled with lubricant in the system. The driver realizes the AC isnt working and just stops using it while he drives. A few months later, he's far from home in a blizzard and can't call if he gets stuck due to mountains. He's running the heater (with the AC button on) and the car starts making noise. It goes into "lag" mode with the check engine light on. With no other choice, he's forced to drive it as far as it will go in order to get somewhere where a phone call can be made. The engine never overheats but is now 2 quarts low on oil for no explainable reason. That's 2 out of 5 quarts total (if I remember correctly which I often don't) in the engine, so 3 quarts in the motor still.
People are saying the engine is destroyed. From an air conditioner pump? No way, right? Did the AC pump just freeze up and drag the engine down? If so, what would that do if forced to continue driving? I had to tow it home after I got the phone calls out... Now it sits. Damn nice forester.
GMs use AC Delco spark plugs which are rebranded NGKs
I was watching another video of yours just now 😂
Gotta love those 5.3 moneymakers
Unfortunately there are no SJ Forester's with the 2.0 liter turbo gasoline engine and manual transmission, only with CVT, but I'd really like one. I see three ways so I can have one: 1. Manual swap an XT model with a non-XT manual transmission; 2.turbo a manual non-XT model to have the extra power; 3. just pick one of the XT with the CVT or the non-XT with the manual and use it without modifying. Have you done any of the 1 or 2 before and which one do you recommened?
Should check for intake manifold vacuum leaks while you're there,common issue with these too.
Yup, that they are.
Great video! Clean truck, outside of engine compartment!!
Subaru plugs will fix it right up
Wonder if he's ever changed the oil..
Good video.
I'm ashamed to say the spark plugs I pulled off my Subaru this past weekend looked worse.
294k oem plugs smh
Yeah Jon also Service Airbag.. my God.. maybe he doesn't like passengers...
@@nancyoffenhiser4916 I guess not but apparently Robert’s neighbor doesn’t know you are allowed to do preventative maintenance 😂
That old pressure is wicked.
I can get 300k out of my ignition parts?
Looks like I've been throwing money away on tune-ups. 😂🤣
I wish I could get my hands on a truck with that little rust! Everything around here that age, is Swiss Cheese!
Junk yards around me in PA are full of them from the 2000s. Most have the frames rotted out in the same spot. Local vfd lost 4 of them.
Super helpful thank you!
I have a 2014 impreza base hatch with 140k miles that is consuming oil, so I want to use something ticker than 0W-20, what would you recemmend 5W-20, or maybe or 5W-30?
Off topic but I think donut media watched your video about the subaru series. they released a video yesterday tearing down the blown engine out the crashed car said they had "custom baffled oil pans for all there engines"....... I dont believe them tbh why leave out a known issue from the series and only mention baffled pans once they've received hate from those that know 🤦♂️
Sounds like trying to cover their butts/ save face.
I have a 2015 Subaru Forester I found a brown oily substance in radiator when I opened the cap can you please guide me on how to fix.
Oil cooler probably mixing coolant and the engine oil
Hey bud, what is the part number for the japan made oil filter for a 2021 Subaru Outback premium
Check the intake Runners probably carbon clogged
Can you please do the diag on the evap? I just got the same code on my truck
I'll see if the customer wants to bring it back later. Most of the time I find its the EVAP vent solenoid failed.
That would be great appreciated!
For the algorithm!
She was a 7 cly
I’m not much of a mechanic but I know spark plugs don’t last for 300,000 miles.
I've got a 2017 legacy with the FB25, I just rolled over 65,000 miles and was wondering if I actually needed to do the spark plugs at 60K. I plan to do them as soon as possible but it is a very short interval compared to other vehicles
@@EpicDrew15 I'm just waiting for warmer weather to get it done, WI is tempermental. I'll have to see if he has any recommendations on whether to replace ignition coils or even just boots and spring.
Watch these videos just cause you're handsome lol
Felt quite threatened while watching this video... if you know you know
Should you not change spark plugs every 50000 miles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Depends on the plug, even for a 2013 Outback I’ve seen compatible plug ratings range from 40,000-80,000 miles.
2017 trans axel oil is valoline 75w-90 ok to use? Please advise ; thanks for your videos Mike
