Replaced my original unit at 53,000 with a Stewart
tore it out, resealed it and put it back in 5 miles later
and one more time at 58,000

After all that practice, I could probably do it in an hour now. :yesnod:

I'm a registered member of the C-4 opti-spark, waterpump, wires, and plug replacement club. Did mine at 49K, and the opti was terrible. The next time will be an electric pump and a Dyna-spark, then I'll be able to relax. :yesnod:

I did mine at about 120K but I don't know if the previous owner had done it before or not.
