MudisFun Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Total Time - four days, mostly on... Completed Mission - Head Gasket Set + Oil Pan Gasket + Oil Pump Reseal Cuts - five good ones on my hands, one on my right side Cost - With tools, about $400 Left Over Bolts - One, yah! Knowledge Learned - Priceless? No, about $400 and a girlfriend who thinks I don't want to listen about her day as I am sitting on a EA82 trying to loosen a head bolt. She's done! Sounds like crap but will get me to work and school untill I get a chance to fine tune on Friday. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone that helped me out (I was 180 deg off- damn). Usmb your getting $10 next pay check, I think it's about time. Well I having a beer and a cigar, although I think everyone deserves (though who helped anyway:-p ) the same reward, but shipping isn't free.

calebz Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Good deal. Another success story. And I was starting to think we would be held responsible for a $400 disaster :-p Too bad you can't paypal beer and cigars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alf Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Knowledge Learned - Priceless? No, about $400 and a girlfriend who thinks I don't want to listen about her day as I am sitting on a EA82 trying to loosen a head bolt. It was the same for me, but we sit on the engine together with my wife Congrats on your success!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishy75 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Congrats - I'm jealous. Mine is still sitting in the driveway waiting for my bro-in-law to bring over his portable air compressor & cutting tools so I can get my damn broken intake manifold bolt out (it's a long story). Hope she tunes up good for you:drunk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MudisFun Posted January 27, 2005 Author Share Posted January 27, 2005 sawzals (wrong spelling) can be picked up at a pawn shop for under $50 and that should cut the head of the bolt if you're careful. You might want to think about it, I know I use mine every other project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
