    Going to pull it apart with someone who knows what they're doing and check it out. If the head is done or I gotta rebuild, I'll just sell. I'm in college, looking for work, getting married soon. I don't have the time or money for being a car guy although I hope really bad that I can keep it and fix it.

    If it's an easyish fix, then I'll do it and replace all the stuff I was going to.

      Just ordered timing belt parts after this thread got me researching them. I thought since i barely drove my car that i would be fine. Ive had it 5 years now and with the hot summer/ cold winter it's definitely about to break.

        You're very lucky. I read somewhere if you don't drive it a lot then you have to change it possibly sooner? Not 100% on that. But that's like if you barely drive it.

        Change it NOW! I wouldn't even drive if I was you.
