    1999 Subaru Legacy Outback 5 Speed

    Hello there

    A year ago we found a 1999 Subaru in CT. Fell in love with her and brought her home New Year's Eve.
    Perfect body. One tiny bubble spot on rear wheel well area. No issues at all until now. Happy clutch, winter package
    heated seats, the whole shebang. Last week up and stops cold. Timing belt. Replaced with water pump. Runs well now but misses. Thinking of adjusting throttle cable to increase idle or replacing engine or just having someone open up the head to see which valve is bent to replace. Would like to keep her but not sure what the best course of action would be. Would prefer going back to automatic if I can find a good home for 5 speed. I would appreciate your thoughts. Living at Lake Wallenpaupack Pa. Thanks so much. Katie

    Did the timing belt break?

    If the Timing belt did in fact break there is a possibility that it bent a valve which could cause the misfire.
