Originally my plan was to rebuild engine(231K), but presently its not using too much oil. I was driving the car and loving it until a friend told me he snapped a chain at
255K miles once. Is this true? If so the car goes up on stands tommorow!
Its one thing to replace a chain on an engine stand. Its altogether different when you are doing it in the compartment. About how many hours would this take? Its hot and I'm 40 not 20.
