Thanks.


What are you going to do? She's my daughter, single mom, works hard. She doesn't have 3k to pay someone to do it. So it's either I pay someone 3k, or do it myself. I'm too much of a cheap ass to pay someone, to do what I can do myself.

Got it all back together Saturday.

New;
1. chains
2. tensioners
3. guides
4. lower sprockets
5. water pump
6. spark plugs
7. EVAP solenoid ( that was throwing a code too)
8. serpentine belt
9. obviously all new fluids

Runs like a top, no codes no leaks etc.

She's happy and I don't have to sweat her or my grandkids driving around in a breakdown waiting to happen.

You name the time and place Tom, I'll be there.

Remember I have a MDI with a GlobalConnect subscription, if you ever need it.
