That is marvelous news.

I am hoping that it is the PS pump as someone above stated, because it was "growling" when I first got it (until it warmed up). The level was low and when I brought it up to level it stopped. Seems it leaks when the front of the car is parked uphill, so I started parking it level and no leaks now. Perhaps a hose is loose there?

I may go ahead and soon pull the valve covers. One is leaking a bit anyway. Can only one be removed to check the chain stretch? Also- I do not recall that sound before I changed the oil after I got it. I am hoping that another possibility is that "cheap" oil filter may have something to do with it. I am planning on changing the oil again soon and using a MB filter.

Thanks again
