I had a lifter fail after it had been running fine and some other issues but I am really happy with the results. I sort of cheated her out of the major mechanical part that i did, but thought it wld be too overwhelming. This weekend she will change the oil, check coolant and rotate the tires etc. Should be interesting. Thanks
