- Background
- I bought it from a guy that thought it spun a bearing. Turns out it was only the timing belt tensioner making a racket. The engine swap and build was done less than 5k miles ago, mostly done right but many things not. The engine is sound and what not, but it had he wrong tps on it, bov was vented to atmosphere and the valve cover gasket was installed wrong( I had oil in 3 of the spark plug holes after I drove it home the first time). I want to get the basics sorted out first, then hopefully graduate to an awd conversion, which I know is a pain but I like a challenge.
