man that really sucks. if the engine is messed up you might as well get a new h22.
I remember back in the day when i had my old subaru that i was shifting fom 5th abot 65-70 mph straight into the first (yes it was going into the first with no problem
) and still did not manage to kill the car at all. i got rid of it when it had 212kmiles after more than 60k of abuse in not even one year. I miss that boxy car.
R.I.P
