The water pump on my '97 Legacy is leaking at high RPM, so I searched Ebay for a COMPLETE kit. Timing belt, water pump, hydraulic tensioner, cam and cog pulleys, accessory belts, oil seals, thermostat, etc. None were advertised.

But one shop had a kit that was near complete and I called them up. Caroline was VERY knowledgeable about the different Subaru engines and year variants. She was great to deal with. She put together a COMPLETE package that even includes a longer bolt for the cog pulley which sometimes needs to be changed depending on the individual car of that year. I had no idea about that.

The water pump is Paraut. The automatic tension adjuster is (OEM) Subaru. The timing belt is Contitech or Bando. The drive belts are Bando. This kit will service Subaru Legacy's with 2.2L engine's with a year range of 1995-1998.



$318 USD shipped USPS, which should work out to about $430 CAD all taxes, exchange and duty in at my door.

Closest Goodyear kit that I tried to source locally was a Goodyear kit at $500 CAD. And they weren't sure which pulley wasn't included. "Maybe the tensioner. Not sure." That helps.
