OK so some maintenance and others are fixes, I need some input on what i should prioritze on. What comes 1st?
-Header is cracker, really cracked @ the collector. Should i also change the 02 sensors while i am at it? its been cracked for 6 months or so maybe longer. When i do the header i will be replacing the intake manifold as well to a 2000 or up.
-radiator leaks, I have yet to overheat but it leaks and alot. I thought that when i do the rad, I think that i should replace the water pump possibly and the hoses are pretty bad off too. AND add a trans cooler and a trans temp gauge. phew thats a mouth full!
seams like everything is leaking under the hood!
-rear main
-oil pan
-valve cover
-radiator
-water pump
there is likely more i dont know where else to look.
- when i priced the valve cover gasket from auto zone it was $90 something. Is that about right? I am not sure if they had it right but it was for the gasket and not the valve cover itself.
I saw that the valve cover in the quadretec catalog [aluminum colored ones] have the gaskets as well and are $90 something there.. so whats up with that?
-Gas tank leaks and the fuel gauge reads wrong
it leaks at the gasket on top of the tank.
It only leaks if i park at a forward facing incline and the tank is full..
i sure dont want to get water in there though.
-replace fuel pump, filter and gasket.
Ok so a total list in no particular order.
-Cracked Header [cat back later, muffler is flowmaster 40 i think]
-Intake manifold
-Radiator and Hoses
-Water pump
-Hi temp Thermostat
-Trans cooler and temp gauge
-Rear main seal
-Oil pan gasketl [see above]
-Oil pump? [rear main, should I?]
-Valve cover and gasket or just the gasket?
-fuel pump, gasket, filter
Ok so the list goes on but these are the important ones related to maitenance and fixes.. not mods...LOL
Sorry for the long post
