Anders, The head was my first objective. Oil in coolant was found when changing thermoswitch. Antifreeze was 2 months old and the car ran into the red once on the temp gauge until I realized the fan was not coming on.
Car has 160k on it. Decided to look at the chains while I was tearing everything apart.
I'm pretty mechanically inclined, but I'm a first timer doing this. So I didn't know what I needed to do first, timing chain or head. I want to have a helper when I pull the head so that is probably why I did the timing cover first.
My engine is full of tarnish and flaky carbon buildup especially in the timing chain area. This has me concerned that my inlet screen is somewhat clogged. While I have everything apart I want to go over what is possible. My car is on blocks and I just need to disconnect the motor mounts and jack it up.
While I'm going to all this work anything else come to mind to check/replace before I put things back together? Thanks
BrianZ
