mtncrsr Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Hello guys just got my first Subaru. It has a little under 76000 miles 97 Legacy Outback with a 2.5 I'm going to do a tune-up does anybody have a specific plug that we running in these? And any other suggestions while I'm doing the tune up air cleaners new. Thanks Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtdash Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Hi, yours is a 2nd Generation Legacy -'95-'99 (1st Gen outback so that may be the confusion)...even more confusing is this site uses the JDM generations - not the USDM - (JDM 2nd Gen are '94-98) . ONLY use NGK plugs and wires. Plug model is in the Owner's Manual and/or on the underside of the hood, I think. I hope you have a a good selection of tools as plugs are pain on the DOHC EJ25D. Also, you may be past due for the timing belt/waterpump/pullies/tensioner, which is due @ 105K OR 10 years. I'm jealous of that low mileage....but remember, head gaskets can blow based on time - not only mileage, so watch for the symptoms for INTERNAL leaking head gaskets- coverered ON EVERY SUBARU forum. There are other maintenance things to do if you didn't get a history from the previous owner (PO)...keeping looking online. GL, TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
