2001 Subaru Forester Engine

The 2001 Subaru Forester engine listed on this page is the EJ251. The catalog entry identifies the engine family for this model year; it does not provide additional specifications such as displacement, power, or fuel requirements. Check the vehicle’s door jamb or owner’s manual for any figure you need that is not listed here.

Use the engine code as a reference when comparing the 2001 Forester with other model years or trims. This page lists only EJ251 for 2001, so it does not establish whether other years or trims use the same engine or have different specifications. Confirm the engine fitted to a particular vehicle from its door-jamb information or owner’s manual.
