My favorite part of my wagon was loading a bunch of people into it and feeling it rise to the right height. I think there was something wrong in that the car would leak down when it was off if you put a bunch of weight in (2 large folks in the back seat for instance) but as soon as it went into gear it would figure itself out.
On Andrew's problem he really just needs an SLS equipped head right? Would it be more expensive to just swap heads than swap engines? Seems like while the head was off you'd get a good look at the engine too and have the opportunity to make sure everything was okay, and replace the headgasket of course. Man, all this talk makes me want another wagon. -Curt Date: Sat, 10 Oct 2009 10:58:21 -0500 From: "Kaleb C.
