MY TRUCK HAD 159,000 MI ON MY MAZ BEFORE THE MOTOR FINALLY WENT, THIS WAS MY FIRST VEHICLE AND I WAS EXTREMELY HARD ON IT.
I RECENTLY CARRIED THE MOTOR TO THE MACHINE SHOP, AND WHEN THEY TORE IT DOWN HE SAID THAT THE PISTON RINGS, VALVE GUIDES & VALVE SEALS WERE SHOT, PLUS IT HAD A BLOWN HEAD GASKET. THE HEAD, BLOCK CRANK AND CONN. RODS, & PISTONS WERE ALL GOOD THOUGH.
IF YOU PULL THE HEAD, I WOULD HAVE IT REWORKED, IT SHOULDN'T COST BUT @ $350-$400, AND WHILE THE HEAD IS OFF PULL THE PISTONS AND PUT NEW RINGS IN. THAT SHOULD CURE ALL OF YOU MOTOR AILMENTS, AND IT SHOULD GO ANOTHER 200,000 MI WITH PROPER CARE.

NOT A CUSTOM TAG YET, BUT WHEN THE TRUCK IS BACK ON THE ROAD.
NYTRDR24 == NYT (NIGHT) RDR (RIDER) 24 (D.O.B.), THAT EXPLAINS THE HANDLE, AND THE BAMA ROLL TIDE IS JUST THE COLLEGE TEAM I PULL FOR, TOO BAD THEY LOST TO LSU IN A NAIL BITER LAST SATURDAY...

88LX,
IT'S ALL GOOD, I WISH IT WERE AUBURN & LSU, & YEAH I HAD A FEW BOTTLES OF THE SUDS.
I DON'T SEE HOW LSU WILL WIN THE SEC WEST, THEY WILL HAVE THE SAME RECORD AT THE END OF THE SEASON AS IF WE BEAT AUBURN, 10-1, AND THE TEAM THAT BEAT THEM, TENN. WE BEAT! SO THAT SHOULD PUT US AHEAD RIGHT? ANYHOW, WE STILL HAVE TO BEAT AUBURN BEFORE ANY OF THAT DISCUSSION IS WORTHY...
