Hi all. have a couple of questions for the sho mechanics out there.
1. If I can manage to get the intake off, now much harder is it to remove the heads? Im not mechanical at all, but I could have my fiancees father help, hes pretty good.
2. On my 94 when i attempted the 60K service i had the engine down to the cams, this was not too bad in my opinion. Say this is a 5 on a scale of 1 to 10, where would you rank removing the v8s intake at?
3. I dont plan on reinstalling and timing it, I head chris from nesho mention that timing the engine in the car can be difficult for them. But i want to get all the parts myself, trying to finish school, and have to do this as ecomonically as possible. What other parts do I need to get? head gaskets, i assume, intake gaskets? Head bolts?
4. the **** I bought my car from changed the oil in my car maybe twice in the life of the car. PM or email me if you want to see some pictures that will turn your frigging stomach. as long as i am doing this, I want to drop the oil pan and clean out the bottom of the engine, and whatever is down there. What other parts will I need for this?
5. Being as i know the engine had no care for it at all should I just junk this engine and look for a relacement?
I appreciate everybodys time and though, Ill try not to bug you guys anymore Until I get it fixed.
Why oh why, god, do I love these stupid Cars. Why couldn't I love a Camry or an Accord.
