Pipe plug socket for the rear diff is a 13mm, not 1/2". Japanese, duh. Made the correction in the tool list in the description.

[@jbradley920rox]

i wanted to ask your opinion on impact drivers... so i have been practicing on working on the ej25 series engines keeping it in the bay, currently I am working on the 253 sohc and the damn cam sprocket bolts have been giving me a run for my money. do you know of an electric impact that is powerful and slim enough to fit in that small area that can pull that bolt? i bought the special cam tools and used a hollow bar with my 1/2 in breaker, but all that happened was the bolt got marred to all hell, so now i have a bolt remover socket. im debating on pulling it to fix it but i am curious if i can find an impact that i can use and avoid pulling the block. thanks in advance

[@MrSubaru1387]

The new stubby M12 1/2 or 3/8 impact would be my recommendation. Just bought the 3/8" and love it. 250ft.lbs of torque. It's a compact beast.

[@MrSubaru1387]

On rusty cars, a 1/2" can round out the inside of the drain plug.

[@bradmironik6137]

Found a set of square and triangle sockets which included the 13mm Sq for $30 on ebay. Are they great sockets? Probably not but did the job for the rear differential even if I only use it once they were worth it. The special socket alone was $30 if you could find one in stock.

I in recent months got that spill free funnel. Though I have over the years bought some other stuff. That cam gear tool comes in handy so long at the cam bolt does not strip out. I actually bought a smoke machine for leaks as well. Been hunting gremlins hiding in the systems here and there. Thing I found really handy is getting that cheap transmission jack that Harbor Freight has. That has saved me soo much time and headache removing and installing the transmission in mine.

Great video. Tons of helpful tools! I bought the P&L Motorsports Engine Builder Super Pack for $150 you get the cam seal installer, the front crank tool, the rear crank tool, and covers for the intake and exhaust ports. All made in the US, by P&L. It is night and day difference using the correct installers for these seals. I’ve been meaning to get some of those Company 23 tools, looks like I’ll be making a cart soon enough, lol.

[@cobra454tim]

Yes sir you are correct on the drain plug near the oil filter for the EZ36, I just did my coolant last winter and all I did was a drain and refill on the radiator using that funnel that you have which came in handy! This winter I will drain and refill the radiator again even though Subaru says I don’t have to do it for 12 years my car is six years old I figured I would just do it halfway anyway!

[@svtwrc]

So good . The info in these are priceless. If someone has a Check Engine light and code stored and can’t make it to a shop, find a friend or family member with a Cobb Accessport to read codes. The Cobb Subaru tuning device can read all Subaru codes and offer insight into the fix and or common parts giving more information on the code and not just reading it. Doesn’t matter what Subaru the Cobb is for it will read Subaru codes.

[@jakemartinez2525]

A lot of subarus you can put the ignition in the “ON” position, turn your lights on, press the “odometer/trip reset” button 4 times, lights off, press the button 4 times again, lights back on, press the button 4 more times and it will show your engine codes in the odometer display. Had to do it yesterday for a C0042 on my wrx haha.

Spill free funnel is an absolute must for anyone who wants to do any kind of work that requires draining/filling the cooling system And if you're like me you will end up buying like 3 or 4 of them because the adapters somehow walk away like Even with moving over to using a vacuum cooling system tester/filler tool a spill free is just a requirement Also I'm surprised how different that rear crank seal tool is compared to the factory tool... I still have a ton of the factory tools that I bought when I worked at the dealership because people didn't know how to put anything back where it goes and I would waste time (alot of time normally) when I needed it to complete my job... exspensive ya but paid for themselves many times over now

astro subaru ball joint puller for the main one in the knuckle, worth the 30 bucks

[@B1GDaddyFatStax]

Yes, the EG33 has metal pulleys. I also use the Company 23 cam tool for my EJ25D, but if it's not in car I won't use it. I prefer pulling the VC and using a wrench on the cam itself. I've had those pulleys break even with the proper tool. Yes, they get obscenely tight.

[@MarkBrockman1956]

THANKS!

[@newbeginnings8566]

Worth buying that 13mm pipe plug for the differential.. if you use a 1/2 inch you are bit undersized and you could slip off or round a tightly torqued or old plug .

[@bluntweaponahs]

On the stretch belt it can be done by hand (belt side) and turn the crank with a 22m socket. it gets pinchy but doable, an 8mm box wrench bolted on the top end as a guide helps but not needed.

[@ValentinArzola]

The OTC 5900A-Plus: Torx Plus Master Kit includes the T70 in half inch square drive.

[@Mihogan]

Hey buddy, love your videos and used to love wrenching on older Subarus. However, both my wife and I, and all the recent Subarus I've done maintenance on, are FB engines. Any experience with those yet? Specifically wondering about engine block drains but just a suggestion for the future in your videos to mention the FB engines and tools needed for those. Thanks for posting man love your vids

[@AG8000]

Very nice

[@ttamn92]

Also the roll pin punch is a must but I found it easier to get the pins started back in the axles with an old 1/4 socket extension that I don't care to beat up but dropping the pin into the 1/4" square hole that the ratchet would go and just tap it in a bit till it's good and started...but just my experience

[@62Cristoforo]

Nice collection and explanations of these specialty tools. But I’m sure you must have also many specialty tools that have eventually proven themselves to be somewhat useless or redundant. I’ve collected a couple over the years

[@danieljohnston3708]

Great info mate, thanks for sharing your knowledge. I've recently purchased a 2013 Tribeca that's due for some maintenance and have found your videos to be really helpful. Just have a question about doing a drain and fill on the auto transmission: Is it okay to use a different synthetic transmission fluid to what it's currently using? The mechanic that last serviced it, used 'Total - Fluidmatic' synthetic auto trans fluid, but this isn't available for retail purchase.

[@MrSubaru1387]

It's not recommended to mix fluids. You'd have to see how compatible that fluid is. Or if it's supposed to be a "universal" fluid. You should have GM Dexron or Subaru ATF-HP in it. Can't remember what year they changed over.

[@Khg72]

Great tools, but for timing belt job would be the camgear lock tool of company 23. That would finish the tools recommendation.

[@MrSubaru1387]

I've had no need for the cam lock. Rarely do they spin on me and when they do, they're easy to rotate back into place. The time taken to set the tool would be the same as me just replacing the belt anyways.

[@JoseSantaellaVelez]

I do recommend to use CTA Tools 7615 Camshaft Holder or the OEM 499977500; since I have already experienced one Intake Cam Sprocket ruing since the tool from Company23 Subaru AVCS Intake Cam Sprocket Tool hold the Intake Sprocket from the outside and there is a small ping broken inside the Intake Cam Sprocket Also for those searching for Subaru Tools (sorry they are really expensive) subaruretailersolutions.com/tools

[@yardenipooo]

Hey there! first of all thank you so much for your'e time spent on making these awsome videos! my ez30R is giving me hell and i fixed so much with your'e help and saved tons of money :) also, i would like to ask if you have a idea where i could get a replacement tool for subaru's ST used to adjust the front and rear differential preload. i use a hammer and a kind of plastic chisel but it wont always work...(if i cant find one ill just solder me one.) replaced my transmission from my 2004 5eat from a legacy sedan and accidently installed one from a 2006 outback, bouth 5EAt for EZ30R thought they were the same but now i found out the final drive on the 2006 outback is different...(same final drive as the turbo gt 5eat 3.027 vs mine which is 3.272.) any idea what else is different? i have got p0715 and cant go past 3rd gear :( i have swapped out the front diff and problem remained the same. every dissasembly and reassembly of this transmission is a true hassle to do in my yard :) if you know any thing it would mean the world, i'm out of ideas...

[@MrSubaru1387]

If the ratios are off the car should torque bind. That can tear up the rear diff and or center diff. I wouldn't drive it until you have the correct transmission with the correct gear ratio.

[@mikefennema5561]

A 1-1/4 inch socket is half a smidgen tighter on the axle nut than 32 mm.

Question: Some (but not all, oddly) of the Subaru cam sprockets on the 2.5L SOHC have 1 plastic cam sprocket and 1 metal cam sprocket. The 2nd cam pulley tool listed below works for the metal one, but what works for the plastic one? Does that DOHC tool work for the SOHC plastic sprocket, or is there another tool out for that? TIA.

I've replace the timing belt with no special tools. They aren't necessarily required, but they make life so much easier.

[@kevingallineauii9353]

I'm not sure how you would tighten the crank bolt without a crank pulley wrench. Probably a 22 mm deep socket for the crank pulley bolt. The cam pulleys wrenches are absolutely not necessary however it is very difficult to align the cam pulley by hand if the cam pulleys rotate (at service position my driver's side head had compressed valves and the pulley wanted to turn with the lightest bump) so take special care not to move them or see if your local auto parts store can lend you a tool for them. My father used a simple trick of paper clips to hold the timing belt on the pulleys. I bought that funnel filler tool, loved it (not strictly essential but made refilling the coolant drop dead easy). Torque wrench is probably a must though. You can get by with the harbor frieght 50-150 ft/lbs one ($20 on sale).
