I do this when I take a break and walk around the yard. Rubber seals, metric nuts and bolts, grommets, clamps, hoses....

Scott's project is separate from the registry. I'll add your coupe

And "significant rust"

If you send your info and photos to me I'll add them to the registry. Dan

You could also post a few photos from the auction.

I contacted the manager there and they updated the VIN photo.

They may post it when the auction gets closer. I can send a message to the manager making sure they post the correct photo of the VIN plate also.

I'm still trying to make sense of the motor turning by hand fine but having interference after starting. If that's the case it seems the physical setup is okay for piston, valves, head but the variable may be in the timing chain assy like others alluded to.

Contractors charge based on your zip code around here.

I'd look to see how mine is but I don't feel like getting under the dash. Sorry.

I liked the map too. Maybe someone will create a better one for Xenforo.

The member map is dead. I thought I removed all the links but I guess not. It didn't work well and would take too much time to deal with. Dan
