    nice work man!
    and I see the timing chain job.. I remember mine! guides were obliterated!

    and please don't tell me you're using a fram filter... for an extra buck or two you can get a Bosch filter from autozone and that'd upgrade you from paper cardboard internals to a better synthetic media.

    Ya it wasnt easy. It was stuck real good but i pulled it apart alittle at a time with the help of a flat head.

    Ya my guides where gone. They where in the oil pan. I have always used fram since my first car. Never had a problem.

    Just gave her the simple normal antifreeze right now. Just cause i had it laying around. But there was so much mud in the lines and the old radiator. it was nasty. Was easy but i was just lazy to do it. I will be changing the fluid again to toyota red.
