        I'm over this car, Ok so I started with what I thought was a timing belt/water pump job and valve adjustment. FML#1: Found out that one of the rocker arms was broken. so I fix that, redid everything else again. So I started putting back all the coolant hoses, FML#2: Found out that the water pump was the wrong one because the one I received, had two outlets, and mine only has one, didn' realised that until I started putting the hoses back. So I went to Autozone real quick bought the right water pump and installed it. Put everything back again. Changed the oil filter, added oil. Then I started adding water to the system (added water instead of coolant just to make sure there was no leaks). Checked to see if the was any leaks, found two, one on each side of the engine. One was just a loose hose, I tighten that and went to the other side to see where the leak was coming from. FML#3: Found that the thermostat housing was cracked. LOL.
        I knew I should of changed it. :(

            I've got a brand used new cooling system that I picked up for a customer who flaked.

                                Lol, I picked up a plate filler last night for $35 shipped. Mine was fubared last week, after falling off complete with my License Plate, you gotta be on the hunt 24/7 to get what you need homie. Hopefully the new used one will be here before Bfest. ;)
