I bought my 41K mile '98 for less than $3K because the guy who sold it (and me) assumed the secondary tensioners would need to be done. I wasn't going to drive it again until I knew it was good, so I bought gaskets and new tensioners, took the valve cover off and...



Jackpot!

Yes! The tensioners had already been replaced.

After fixing the left bank knock sensor the rodent family living under the manifold tried to eat:



Chewed Knock Sensor

I am dangerously close to putting it back onto the road and with a great A/C, and 95 degree weather coming, just in time.
