I knew of a real good one in New Jersey for Gen 1 and 2. But that was 20 years ago, my 90 has the repair records from them but every time I look them up I can't find them

Ny jersey or Philly Jersey? There are some area groups listed at the bottom of the forum and probably easier to spread the feelers out on Facebook if you're on it. (I'm not on FB but that's what it looks like to me)

These older car group members and resources are getting harder to track. Did you try the FB group? That might be an easier shout out over there.

Ha ha. That's not surprising. I learned to turn a wrench owning these cars. What kind of work does it need?

Ok so there is a bunch of easy stuff for 120k like plugs and wires up top and look at the oil seals on the valve cover. I would suggest you do that yourself to save $.

The front of the engine-- tbelt/h2o pump --you can get anyone who is a good mechanic to replace water pump and timing belt. It's not so special that an experienced tech should have an issue with it. Just be careful with 3 piece plastic cover over the timing area. It comes off in a certain way and you can break the pieces if you yank on them too hard out of order.

I appreciate the vote of confidence! My plugs, wires and valve covers are in good condition. No oil in plug wells. One or 2 of the grommet bolts are seeping oil a lil bit. My main area of concern is really the water pump, timing belt, and one or more of the pulleys is loud. Also ive had reinforced front motor mount and extreme rear mount installed and my motor is STILL MOVING
