i drive a 97 type ra.
the problem is it has just developed a water leak out of what i think is the header tank.
it is on the left as you look in and seems to leak through the seal on the unit.
can anyone shed any light on this
thanks baz

Welcome to Scoobynet
Pity it couldn't have been for a happier reason.
I take it it's not the cap that's leaking!!
Is the header tank made of metal or plastic with a metal edge round it?
If it's metal then I'd have thought you'd be able to get a new seal from Subaru.
Just undo the bolts on top and change the seal.
If it's a plastic tank get an aftermarket one from Forge etc. It's not worth fixing the plastic tank as they get brital with age.
Hope you get it sorted.
