once again y'all are correct. Turns out she has the original steel head gaskets, so getting her all fixed up. New head gaskets, valley gasket, valve gaskets, lifters, and cleaning out the pick up.
Is it a good sign about the health, or PO care of the car, if OE head gaskets are still in it at 117k miles?
I can't wait to get her back and be confident of how good she'll run. Now I just need to get my wife off my a$$ about it. She thinks it is a lemon, and I just keep telling her it's not a lemon, it's english. She shouldn't complain anyhow as she did get a mint 99 disco II out of the whole deal. Ain't married life grand!
