Hmmmm...anyone have any easy way to change the head gaskets on a '97 Suby
Legacy wagon?
The car is in decent shape and passed inspection; I don't think the BHG
did very much damage...yet.
Is there some way to change the HG's easily on this car? It has a 2.2L
SOHC 16V engine. I am getting estimeats of $900-1200, but I have heard it
may be possible to replace the gaskets w/o removing the engine.
One web site showed the engine being pulled from the top out the hood, but
a friend of mine says it's easier to drop the sub frame, lift the car and
then move the engine.
Another 'mechanic' says to put someof that Head Gasket Stop Leak into it
and drive it, since it was <$200, and maybe get 3-7,000 miles out of it.
All in all, it seems like too nice a car to do that...
