since i don't have the money for the car. i went to move it. looked under the hood. it will only take like a day to put a new engine in and get it running...... so tempting to order a reman tomorrow and have my TII back for the halloween cruise and rx7 vs supra event.... whatcha think?

Burning water is rarely JUST a coolant seal, unless you get lucky.
