I've seen these posts for about every engine in a j-body accept for mine, the 2.0 OHC motor. My engine has 111 000KM on the original motor. I've done a recent tune up to the car, plugs, wires, air filter and i have a pcv valve and a fuel filter to go in. I've driven the car now for about 6 months, only work i've done for the car was a new radiater, and some stabalizer links.
