If your car is not burning engine oil, has never overheated, is not suffering serious oil leaks around the engine head, best is to not touch it at all and leave it as it is.

QUOTE(e-jump @ Feb 18 2008, 07:29 AM) The reason of overhaul is just to have a healthier engine. No, engine already been fine with no overheating etc. Meaning just a regular engine oil change+ plugs checks+TB cleaning etc should be enough, ie if aint broke dont fix it? brackets noted The reason of overhaul is just to have a healthier engine. noted the ones that never been done before Thanks Yes seriously if it ain't broke don't fix it, once you tear open the engine, it will never be the same again and also it might be a lot more problems if the mechanic doesn't take his time to do a proper job.

QUOTE(e-jump @ Feb 19 2008, 07:50 AM) owh, OK.. thanks for the advices :thunbs: Guess i wont touch the internals until im decided+have sufficient funds for a PnP. Anyway, how long does it take to get the TB cleaned? The belting and flushing fluid can be done in a day, but TB? Few hours only, the cleaning is quick, just spray with carb cleaner, scrub a bit and wipe clean.
