I have a 94 9000 cse with 130000 k. I thought i had a timming cahin problem, turns out its the valves. Anyone had this problem?? they are making a "tapping" noise above 2000 rpms. So my mechanic told me that they are going to have to redo the heade, install new valves get the head done and its going to cost around 1000 bucks for it all. They have an engine at the shop with only 80,000 miles on it. installed it would be 1600 dollars, but i was thinking i could do it myself with an engine lift. the engine alone is 900, but i think i can talk him down a little. anyways how hard is it to replace the engine?? i really want to save some money and do it myself. Has anyone done it? and how long would it take? and is there a procedure page on how to do it avaliable? thanks for any help, and if anyone in the meriden CT area wanted to help out hand on, id pay you for your help, Im a poor college student who really needs to save some money! haha thanks for any help.
