Jewby Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 kinda lazy question, but: changed timing belt about 2k ago on my 93 legacy. everything is running great. is it necessary to go in there and count the teeth to make sure nothing has slipped? is one tooth off noticeable?

Legacy Wagon Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I wouldnt bother, especially if everything is running great. It can jump up to 5 teeth before it shuts down I'm pretty sure. Not that it'll matter much being a non-interference. That happened to my Legacy once. It was more an inconvenience than anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiprsha666 Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 A tooth or two might be noticable. But if the car is running fine I wouldn't worry about it imo. I did mine of my 95 legacy and had no problems. Still solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Wagon Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Yeah, but the 95's are an interference engine. If it was a 2.5 I'd say yes, but with a 2.2 it's not really worth it unless it's driving crappy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. In 97 is when they became interference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Wagon Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 No problem, dude Oh, I see. I thought the 95's had a 2.5. My mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddog Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 2nd Gen Legacy L's had the 2.2 the GT had the 2.5. The 2.5 is interference all of the years. In 97 is when the 2.2 became interference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
