    I have a 98 Subaru impresario wagon L, 2.2l, that I had bought for $2500 bucks. It is turning out to be quite a project. I have to rebuild the engine with a buddies help as two pistons, drivers side, are shot along with getting a valve Job as they are leaking. Sad thing is this car only has 140000 miles on it. I have replaced a wheel bearing, plugs, wires, refurbished maf sensor (auto zone), all struts with new oem replacements, hatch struts, rear wiper wash hose, 4 new tires, and bits and pieces here and there. I would like to see the end of the tunnel soon as I have been able to drive it a little more than a 1000 miles since I got it. Have a great day everyone and hope is always appreciated! :)
