That is a common mistake by folks who are not familiar with this car. It's a good way to get into them free or cheap, if the owner/dealer/shop is telling you it has bent valves. Re-align the belts and go!
wow thanks so much! the shop that did the belts on my car(same motor) set the flywheel at 0 degrees, so everything looked good but they set the flywheel wrong to begin with!
@DeliciousMike any of the ea82 engine will be the same with the timing belts and engine seals. 1985-1994 subaru DL, GL, RX, GL-10, XT, Loyale in turbo, spfi, or carb.. Even the xt6, with slightly different belt and pulleys, use the same alignment marks and procedure.
