    Q:
    How should you remove the connecting rods for the 2010 Subaru Impreza? Posted by Customer
    A:
    To remove the connecting rods, you should loosen the cap nuts or bolts on one connecting rod in three steps. Then, carefully lift off the cap and bearing insert, and remove the connecting rod and remaining bearing insert from the crankshaft journal. It is important to temporarily reassemble the connecting rod, bearing, and cap to prevent mixing up the parts.

    Q:
    What is the process for measuring the oil clearance using Plastigage, and what should be checked afterward for the 2003 Subaru Impreza? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Apply a length of Plastigage to the crankshaft journal, just off-center. Install the connecting rod cap in place without turning the connecting rod on the journal. Make sure the mating mark on the cap matches the mark on the connecting rod. Afterward, examine the Plastigage width and compare it to the scale on the Plastigage package to determine the connecting rod oil clearance.

    What should be done after ensuring that all connecting rod clearances are within specifications for the 2008 Subaru Outback? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Lubricate both halves of the bearings of connecting rod number 1 with moly-based assembly lube and install the connecting rod nuts or bolts. Tighten them in three steps. Repeat this procedure for the remaining connecting rods. Do not mix up the connecting rods and caps, and do not install the connecting rods backward. After installation, rotate the connecting rods by hand and check for any obvious binding. As a final step, recheck the connecting rod side clearance.
