1998 Subaru Outback Legacy Speedometer not registering

From online research,this is a common problem for this vehicle year,make & model. There are usually two fixes for the problem.The first is a broken solder joint on the printed circuit board on the back of the instrument cluster.It can be repaired easily if you're good at soldering.The second fix is a defective vss (vehicle speed sensor) Its located on the side of the transmission and simply bolts in place I believe.

2007 Subaru Outback 2.5 non turbo. Does the VVT (variable valve timing solenoid have anything to do with the fuel system?

It is two separate systems. V.V.T. (Variable Valve Timing), runs on the oil system of the vehicle so has nothingdirectly to do with fuel. The vvt solenoid is basically an electrically operated switch that alters the engines mechanical timing depending on how hard it's being work. If the solenoid is stuck either open or closed the valve timing doesn't adjust so it won't run smoothly and it can affect your fuel consumption because of that. What exactly is your fuel issue?

My Subaru Forester is having trouble shifting gears after having had the clutch system replaced

Your mechanic did not adjust the new master cylinder actuator shaft for the correct pedal free- play of about 3-4mm. This shaft can vary in length (normal manufacturing tolerances) which is why there is an adjustment. This is a simple job that takes about 10 minutes. Move the driver's seat backwards, remove the the lower dash panel to access the clutch pedal. The slave cylinder may need rebleeding as well.

Subaru EJ20 running rough after replacing snapped timing belt

I would suspect a bent valve or two when the belt snapped. Verify the belt installation is correct and the timing marks line up. Do a compression test. If a valve is bent, the head has to come off and the valve(s) replaced.

Sounds like flat tire but tire is not flat

I suspect that the tire is old and the steel belts are failing. Pull the wheel off and check the tire for cracks in the tread, any out of round or bulges. Get a new tire (or tires).
