My 1999 forester had been
The fuel should only come out for a 3-4 seconds that is because the pump shuts of due to no resistance (safety reasons) the ECM thinks the fuel line has leaked and cuts off the fuel. But -----the question is that your vehicle shuts off on its on I would change the spark plugs, wires, air filter and fuel filter and then you should be fine.

Windshield wiper linkage ball joint white knuckle cap is broken
This is a DIY fix for a dollar. The white plastic caps that join the wiper arms together in the wiper assembly commonly wear and break under normal use. 1984 - 1986 Honda CRX and Civics also used these plastic caps for a short time - much to my dismay. In my 2000 Subaru Legacy and Subaru Forester (should work on 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2004 models as well), there is an easy DIY solution that will take care of the excessive play in the wiper travel, as well as the common 'wiper clunk'.
Head over to your local auto parts store an purchase a PCV Valve grommet for a Toyota. Part number 42058. These are only a dollar, and are normally stocked on the shelf. If you put the phrase 'pcv valve 42058' into to Google Image Search you will see what I mean. I’m attaching a picture as well.
For installation, gain access to the wiper assembly, I recommend removing the entire assembly (arms and motor) from below the black trim piece under the windshield. Inspect all the joints. If you have a loose joint, remove the white plastic cap and the arm from the ball joint. Slide the PCV Valve Grommet over the ball joint and press the arm into the grommet. This is now a perfect, snug fit. Wiper blades slamming into the car is a thing of the past.

My clock light on my 2004 Subaru Forester won't
Is this for a 1999 Forester or for a 2004 forester, the title lists both years. If it is a 1999 model then the problem most likely resides within the clock itself. Unfortunately, many clocks of this vintage go bad over time.
I offer a reasonable repair service and many clock removal instruction
sheets at www.autoclockrepair.com
I'd be happy to assist.

STARTER TURNS SLOWLY
Either your starter is going bad, or it is not getting enough power from the battery, in which case, you would want to have the battery checked. Auto-part stores generally do this for free. The terminals on the starter could be corroded or "gunked" up. I've dealt with that, many times before. If you find that they are "gunked" with oil, etc., use some degreaser on the terminals. Make sure, before performing any work on your starter, that your battery is disconnected. Due to the age of your vehicle, if you do need to replace the starter, consider purchasing a used/re-furbished starter and having it installed by a trusted, reputable mechanic. It is possible to do yourself, but those that I have replaced (under the car) were hard to get to and replace with just one person. All the best ~ JD

Vapor lock
Ask your local technician to set up a fuel gauge pressure monitor so you can track it while your driving. Ask him what the normal range is so you will know when it falls below. Document it and let your
Tech know. It sounds like your fuel pump is loosing
Pressure.
