@ridge: It’s not looking to good… But I figure I might as well do the oil
pump and timing while I’m in there. I am more concerned about the potential
HG issue.
Might be oil cooler lines… Not sure yet. I’m planning on doing a new
front cover seal, head gaskets, have the heads machined, oil pump, timing
chain and sprockets, oil pan seal (clean the pan too). Any other thoughts
of what else to do while its open?
This is the before video. I did spray the whole thing down and I spent
about an hr at the car wash spraying and scrubbing. Its way better (shiny)
now in most of the engine! However I’m leaking P/S fluid too… From the
gear box. 🙁
Spray the whole thing down with engine de-greaser then look for the leak.
My theory is if its a Head gasket or front cover. You might as well go
through all the gaskets and get it done right the first time.

Oil cooler line connections?

Buy the whole gasket kit and do it all. It’s harder to take that front
cover off than it is to do the HG’s….
bummuh. I hope it’s a simple fix and not a re-build!
