The answer is yes, the 1995 Subaru Legacy 2.2L engine is an interference engine.
Here's why:
* Interference engines have valve timing where the valves and pistons can collide if the timing belt breaks. This can lead to significant engine damage.
* Non-interference engines have valve timing designed to prevent valve-piston collisions even if the timing belt breaks.
* Subaru's EJ22 engine in the 1995 Legacy is known for its interference design.
Important Note:
It's critical to maintain your timing belt on a 1995 Subaru Legacy with the 2.2L engine. Regularly scheduled timing belt replacement (usually around 60,000 to 100,000 miles depending on the specific engine and driving conditions) is essential to prevent catastrophic engine damage.
If you have any doubts about your timing belt's condition, it's best to consult a qualified mechanic for a proper inspection.
