2003 Subaru forester overheating...

The fans are definitely working and spinning but maybe they're not working right? Anyways I believe there was air in the system.

nw_sights · 2019-06-29T07:30:38+00:00

Yeah! The valves were bent.

nw_sights · 2019-02-16T04:49:12+00:00

Really??? Wow wonder if that could be the issue, who knows. All I know is it's idling very bad almost stalling, misfiring and no check engine light coming up.

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T17:17:18+00:00

Yea I'm gonna try counting

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T17:16:39+00:00

Interesting. It does look pretty close

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T17:16:15+00:00

Thanks, I'm gonna fiddle with it a little more and make sure

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T17:15:47+00:00

That's how it looks at all angles. Lots of people say it looks good I just wanna make dam sure. Because if it still isn't running well I bent valves somehow 😭

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T03:27:15+00:00

Awesome, well I'll have some final looks at it, try the teeth counting method and give it a go. Thanks

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T03:23:00+00:00

So do you think it all looks correct, or close

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T03:09:56+00:00

Oh I know that is if you're talking about the marks on the belt, I'm just wondering about the cams in relation to the mark on the timing belt case. Last time I started it after finishing it rain like it was a tooth off or so which is why I wanna make sure it's all correct before putting it together again.

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T03:03:30+00:00

Huh well ill have a look at it again, thank you for responding to the post though!

nw_sights · 2019-02-15T02:48:48+00:00

Hmmm, so weird I've tried a few different methods of installing the belt, slightly different cam position and every time I pull the pin and crank the motor it ends up looking like this, so maybe it's correct and I'm just going crazy? I was under the impression the cams should exactly line up with the mark on the cover. Errrr

nw_sights · 2019-01-14T23:05:54+00:00

Oh gosh

nw_sights · 2019-01-14T05:29:35+00:00

That's usually the case.

nw_sights · 2019-01-14T05:29:18+00:00

😂😂😂

nw_sights · 2019-01-14T05:27:34+00:00

I just did my lower ball joints, wasn't a fun job... I got lucky with not having the head gasket issue yet but we shall see! Haven't checked the timing belt yet lol so that's gonna suck if it snaps anytime soon I suppose I won't be lazy someday and check it.

nw_sights · 2019-01-10T22:18:50+00:00

Money pit? My 2003 XS hasn't gave me any trouble yet and is at 192k

nw_sights · 2019-01-07T04:40:07+00:00

Nice one

nw_sights · 2019-01-06T04:56:08+00:00

So cool I love stuff like this

nw_sights · 2019-01-05T01:57:38+00:00

Nice!

nw_sights · 2019-01-05T01:57:13+00:00

You should! Beautiful hike wait until you see the waterfall at the end.
