I must say that all this is really .... (searching for a word).....
really makes me mad! (didn't want to cuss on the list)...
This is a rebuilt engine with approx 7000 miles on it. My 1989 2wd
with 98K miles starts better, runs better, SOUNDS better, and is on its
original timing chain with no problems!
The 2wd also has no oil residue backing up into the air filter through
the crank case breather. I think I got ripped on the rebuild and I am
not very happy about this at all. Time to have a talk with the mechanic.
