Hi

Just want to say hi to everyone. I stumbled across these forums while looking at other things about my car. I'll probably be around a lot looking at new topics and other things. I'm looking forward to hearing everone's stories, etc.

I've been here going on two years. Lifesaver when it comes to there cars. People are super friendly, and the wealth of information is ginormous. The search function is great for reading up on similar symptoms and common fixes.

Two items of advice - if the car is new to you, check your timing belt service, and try not to ask how to turbo an NA

Welcome to the board.

Howdy and welcome to the board. Lots of good info and people. Sometimes it is too good because I find myself spending more time typing about what i am going to do with the cars than actually going out to the garage and doing it.

When was the last time you changed your timing and balance belts and/or cam chain and tensioner?
