Just finished...well is anything really ever finished on these cars? Now i have a vaccum leak somewhere....

Anyway I just finished my headgasket job yesterday...and the fucking car runs...this is very exciting to me b/c I've never done more than chang emy oil before...

I ran into some problems along the way...as in a stipped allen key bolt...those bastards...

But all in all...its not easy...and not fun at tims...but when that fucker kicks over(and the scary noises finally go away)....WOOOOHOOO...all i could do was run around screaming like a 5 year old who jsut got a new bike for x-mas.

You might want to think about having hte head "re-freshened" at such high mileage. Maybe even some slight head work while your at it...if your interested in some more power...I didnt do that since im waiting till ig et some money to go all out on a 2.5 :)

ADA///M...still screaming WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO
