yes it did belog to drew but i dont really wanna talk about it. kinda got shafted on the deal but its my problem now. he wont talk to me now to tell me all what needed to be done so im just gonna dive into it and hope to get it right. i think my oil cooler seal is leaking like crazy (not just drips like a full on stream) and i was told by someone that knows him the rear main was replaced but i dont think it has been judging by the rate oil pours out when the engine is under pressure.

Well I know Drew also And I will vouch for the fact that he did indeed put in a new oil cooler seal, rear main, he also replaced the airflow meter and some exhuast pieces. so if you are having issues now it is not that he lied it is just there may be a bigger underlying issue that is causing this van problems. This also was his daily driver for a job that required him to drive all over the state and he did this for over a year. yes it did belog to drew but i dont really wanna talk about it. kinda got shafted on the deal but its my problem now. he wont talk to me now to tell me all what needed to be done so im just gonna dive into it and hope to get it right. i think my oil cooler seal is leaking like crazy (not just drips like a full on stream) and i was told by someone that knows him the rear main was replaced but i dont think it has been judging by the rate oil pours out when the engine is under pressure.

so last night as i was showing my buddy this thing the sliding door falls right off into my yard. luckily the glass and everything stayed in tact the next hour was consumed by getting this thing to roll properly (which is now does thanks to some wd40 and lithium grease.)
still havent even checked out the leak yet...not enough time in a day i tell ya.

I remember the countless time that my slider door has almost fallen off from my first. Rusty slider tracks are not fun.
