Bought this off of a guy that bought it non-running from the original owner a year or so before. The 2nd owners did some work in order to try to get the car running, but ultimately weren't able to do it. Started out the process trying a ton of different things and ultimately found that the fuel injectors were the wrong size (270cc for the computer's required 555cc.)
After making sure it was running right, I did the 120k service (timing belt, water pump, etc.) minus the front main seal. The timing gear on the crank wouldn't budge and I didn't have a spare. Hopefully some magic seal juice in the oil for a bit before I changed it will keep it from leaking in the future lol. Aside from that, the usual fluid changes and a million coolant flushes to hopefully remove the coffee colored muddy hose water someone evidently used in the past. I'm just glad it hasn't rusted through anything or caused a blocked coolant passage. So far, I'm just putting miles on it to see what needs attention. I'm not a fan of the wheel package, but I know where I'll be picking them up when the time comes.
