| I'm not sure about your particular car, but I think the bad engines were 
only in 1 or 2 model years.  I think around 1999.  I'm not sure where you 
can find out for sure, but I would guess that your Subaru service dept. 
would know off hand.  I'm sure they replaced a bunch of them under warranty.
