Well here it goes. I have an 05 legacy gt. I can not get a solid answer on what tube will fit. There is some info indicating that 05 is different than all other years. The killer b tube dose not list a part for 05 only 06 plus I purchased this moroso and it says it fit but there is debate around that as well. Moroso 24965 Oil Pump Pickup for Subaru EJ 20/EJ 25 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005PX0SAO/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_D6QB59KK1H127PPRTV3C I really don't want to pull my pan and find out I have the wrong part. Any help is appreciated, and a write up on pulling the pan would not hurt. My car is on ramps and I have concerns about pulling the subframe in this state.

ER HC and OB2 issue
JoeInOregon replied to SweetTea41's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
It was me. It was definitely mechanical, I plugged in and unplugged the odb port about 100 times and some wiggling and it finally connected. If I have trouble again I will be re pinning the odb port Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -

Broken nipple on intake, now what ? !!
JoeInOregon replied to JoeInOregon's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Thank you that is a good pic I was wondering the same thing , my only thought was that as it's vapor return it should be independent. Also what I did notice is that port is connected to a "straw' that terminates about dead center inside of the manifold. I will get a pic tomorrow when I'm near the car.

Opinions on adding a vacuum Manifold
JoeInOregon replied to JoeInOregon's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Well 36 views and nothing but crickets, this tells me at least no one has a strong opinion about it and probably has not been done. Going to give it a shot then Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -
As I'm replacing vacuum line I find I do not care for how Subaru did this at all. I also have and aftermarket fpr, and fuel damper that both require a vacuum reference. I really just want to run an aftermarket manifold and direct lines to each system. Any reason why this is a bad idea ? Thanks Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk

JoeInOregon replied to JoeInOregon's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
That's what I was hoping, best I could tell it is the exit of the purge valve bringing fuel vapor into the intake Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -

It looks like it comes out but I'm not sure nor could I find a replacement Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -

Welp help please Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -
As expected all the vacuum hoses on the underside of my intake manifold are petrified and cracking in half. In my attempt to remove this on it snapped the nipple right off. I wonder how sensitive this port is to diameter , was hoping I could just tap or epoxy a new nipple on. Thanks Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk

Critter chewed through fuel evap hose
JoeInOregon replied to dbrunone's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
We have these things called pack rats here, and if you give them any reason to come around they destroy stuff well before they die I couldn't even count the customers with messed up cars. Sometimes the only solution was to leave the hoods open Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -

JoeInOregon replied to dbrunone's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
This works if you have a station away from the car, the best thing is to zip tie a bundle of dryer sheets in a couple places under the hood as well as a few under the seats. Irish spring soap chunks work also but much harder to place them, better for a car that doesn't move much 10 plus years in pest control Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -
Anyone installed SuperPro Sway bars?
JoeInOregon replied to neeksimons's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
I have not seen a used one for sale from any company that looks decent to be honest. It might be worth it to coat the new bar in por15 and at that point any brand would probably be ok. White line seems to be the most reviewed Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -
I have been looking for somewhere to relocate to, me and my wife where talking the other day and I realized no one ever talks about Indianapolis, or Indiana for that matter, never on the news, never met anyone from there. I figured that is a good thing. What is it like there and would you recommend it for a family with young kids ? Thank you and sorry for going off topic Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk

My 05 LGT "Rally" Build
JoeInOregon replied to rallyvvagon's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Cool car , I'm doing something similar, not really rally but just how a Subaru was meant to me used. My advise ...new struts, and bushings everywhere. If you are planning and dirt's roads go with OEM and not something similar. I did kyb OEM struts , original springs, 1/2 Saggy but spacer , and it handles dirt and gravel well. Honestly not a whole lot else to add except for maybe some more armor underneath, at least a diff plate Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk -
