This is a 2.2L engine that does NOT feature the head gasket failure mode.

I will probably tidy up the bay when I swap the alt/ps belt in the near future.

This is the 2.5L ej251 that just had the mls gaskets put on because yes, that bitch was leaking again lol

2001 Forester. Did a lot while the engine was out to do head gaskets. My favorite I think was acousti sealing the mega fuck out of my flange gasket. So quiet now.

I think I'm being too cowardly with the belts because I've had to tighten them both at least once. Don't have a perfect 12mm to reach the vbelt pulley so I'll have to take the damn fan off again to get it
