What are the chances of you having some old photos of my van? I always think it has some good karma from its previous life.

You and my bus got history?

Hythe but not your Hythe. Southampton.

I'm glad you guys struggled with yours too. Mine took one hell of a beating with a tube over the top.
Had to be careful not to damage the new seal though.

Hi Jason,
did you get your silicon oil from the same place as the seals?

Regards,
Rich

Can you use this stuff?

It turns out I have bagged myself a sohc despite the info regarding the model year.
So any good advice?
I'm not planning doing the heads in light of this now.

I have found a one owner Legacy 2.5 from '99 with genuine 44k and fsh from Subaru. It's going in my Syncro transporter but not before a precautionary set of head gaskets and cambelt. My question is where can I buy good quality parts and should I be thinking of changing anything else while I have it ...

Simon I was under the impression that there is a syncro contingent on the island. Don't the syncronauts meet annually there too?
That could be a good source of info.

I may know someone who's interested in yours if you're selling it, do you have any pictures of it?

I've had mine for 5 years and live in the new forest area.

I've known the break back plates to knock on the drums before.
Still a drum off fix to "tap" the back plates into alignment.

I liked it when I saw it at Blissfields earlier in the year.

Back plate can be a little out of line and a high spot on the back of the drum lip can hit it every time round.
Try looking for the point of contact on back plate and adjusting carefully with a hammer.

I fixed it!

Connection at back of dashpod.

Thanks for advice cos I checked them and they're both ok now.
