Even after I did the valve cover gasket I could still smell burning oil. As it turns out I need new timing cam gaskets and crank seals (along with pinon seals and swaybar links but thats something else). So while its open should I look at anything else?

 

Timing chains, guides and tensioners?

 

ditto to RJ237

 

those will be checked out, thats on the list

 

Heater hoses.

 

While you are at it I would drop the oil pan and clean out all the crud and replace the gasket. you will be suprised at the muck in the pan

 

good call.


Also doing upper and lower rad hoses and water pump. Decided to go from plastic to metal since its apart
