I'M BACK, BABY!

$1274 gets you all this:

- new oil pan + install
- 4 new camshaft seals, installed
- new idle tensioner assembly w/ new T-belt(see previous post)
- new crankshaft seal and some housing of some sort that broke when removing bolt
- drill out two broken bolts from where rear header pipe meets exhaust plenum
- new mechanic who did a good job, who didn't try to b.s. me, and who gave me a good price, told me a few jokes and showed me his fishing pictures -- priceless, and he wants me to stop by in a few weeks to check out how his work is holding up, the dealer never said this to me!

Then he's going to walk the keys next door to the detail shop and have it detailed for $125, inside and out, wax, buff, the works (first time I ever splurged on this!).

This repair would have cost twice as much at the dealer, no kidding. But without all these leaks, how am I going to spend my weekends? No new tools?

'95 900 SEv6
104,500 miles and ready for another 100K!
