Engine Swap, Not Gonna Rebuild
#21
But when dry the numbers were 120 25 100 110 ( This was 2 weeks ago, don't hold me to those numbers, but one cylinder was definitely that much off). Guy who sold it to me also admitted to coolant, oil mix occurring and that he changed oil ASAP ( I guess coolant will corrode stuff?). What will leak-down test indicate that will change the "necessary game plan"?
Sorry, don't have any. I sold this car 2 years ago. (was nice to turn a profit )

For me a freshening is new bearings. The rings are a bit more involved but still easy enough once the engine is out, especially if you already have the head off to replace the head gasket.

As far as removing the engine I'm no help as I've never pulled one from this model. When I fixed the valves on my 2001 I removed the head with the block still in the car. Maybe it is simply a head gasket and you won't need to pull the engine.
