    06 WRX fuel line leak

    98 OBS hood and grille $75

    Like it says, hood and grille off a green 98 OBS.  Good shape.  I also have a set of headlights that work with this hood and grille if yours wont.  $100 takes all of it, or $75 for just the hood and grille.

    Ok, were hoping for the fuel pressure, if it jumped a tooth, Im assuming that's not enough to cause any engine damage? It sounds fine when it will kind of run, other than it wont rev...   exhaust note sounds right, no engine noises.     The turning the key thing 8 or 10 times then getting it to...
