Default Re: L98 Valve Seals ?? (scorp508)

Hmmm, I've got around 13k miles on mine in 1.5 years. No smoke.
It's been 1& 1/2 years already?

Now, I dont want to question you on this or anything (well, maybe I do :D ) BUT: scorp508...Am I staying up too late and having delusions or was that not you I kept reading posts from with all your engine troubles, left and right over last summer (June-July 2003), the new engine and the subsequent tear down from something getting in the cylinder (nice pics by the way) and messing things up???

Well, where did all the time go and how did you get 1.5 years and 13K miles on that in 7 months time?

550 miles a week just driving to work when the car WAS running. :D That doesn't include any of my other adventures. I have 2 cars now though so it doesn't get as much use (again.... while running :jester)
