I really appreciate the responses, for me this is nerve racking, i want my engine to run beautifully this summer, and next winter i can focus on another area. I succeeded in taking everything off for the 120k. I put in the 5 new seals with ease, i picked up red and blue thread lock to install the new balancer bolts. (also sorry if my part terms are off, im learning as i go) Now before i put everything back in, im going to focus on my power steering mess... I have all new power steering lines to install, this feels more overwhelming than the 120k. Ive searched and searched for someone who made a video of replace the entire line and could not find one, all i found was a guy who replaced the J tube.Do i have to pull everything on the left side of the motor to access the J tube, The accordian tube going to the front of the car and the hard pipe its attached to which looks like it goes possibly to the turbo? I feel like i hit a wall and now im reaching out before i get frustrated and begin pulling random parts and possibly putting them back in error. Also the last pic i have a treat for you guys. Does this tube have to be removed? Im guessing it does, but this is wear im asking if i have to remove a lot from the passenger side of the motor https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...=175&crop=fill Also i noticed this while exploring, I have what looks like oil on the back of the motor. https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...=175&crop=fill https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...=175&crop=fill https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...=175&crop=fill give it to me straight doc, how long do i have to live?? Im hoping whatever this is i feel itll be costly and would like to hold out till next winter. Could power steering fluid somehow have made it all the way back here, that would make me feel better considering that shit went everywhere https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...=175&crop=fill So im also an artist, i usually do custom guitars but am currently working on my timing belt cover. what do you think. https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...=175&crop=fill MikeJ is offline Report Post
