Best Answer

Oil is leaking from a Forester (note spelling and capitalization) or any other engine because you have a gasket or seal that is no longer performing its intended function. Due to the phenomenon called "gravity", the leak tends to be directly above the affected area, especially if it is a static leak. That is a leak that continues while the engine is not running.

Why would a 1999 Honda Prelude idle loud?

Are you referring to a loud exhaust sound? If so, it could be (Going from the engine back to the tailpipe) a cracked or leaking exhaust manifold - a leaking exhaust pipe - a leaking catalytic converter - a leaking muffler. That covers the exhaust system. If you are talking about a noisy clattering sound in the engine, you could possibly need a valve adjustment.

Does a 1999 Subaru outback exahaust system fit a 1997 Subaru outback exhaust system?

Not necessarily. I took a look at a supplier and if you have the same engine, the front pipe is the same number. It is very likely that since the car bodies of these two are from the same series first generation Outback, and they have the same engine, the exhaust will interchange.

I have just changed the piston rings for my Toyota corolla 1.6GL 1999 model but I am now experiencing white smoke from the exhaust What could be the problem now?

White smoke from the exhaust is caused by coolant leaking into the combustion chamber. You either have a cracked head or you did not install the gasket properly.
