Yesterday (with some work done on Saturday) replaced 3 heater hoses, one power steering hose, and the starter. I have now replaced, cleaned, or updated all the major maintenance items on the ZHP except for the TB (clean), ET base plate (might need replacement), and CCV (replace). The only thing bugging me is a slow oil leak. I think it's the oil pan gasket, but it could be the rear main seal. Either way it's going to be an expensive repair, and not one I'm willing to to myself.
Next step will be my first attempt at paint correction and polishing followed by sealant.
===
Edit: My list of remaining maintenance was far from complete... should be
--Clean throttle body and replace gasket
--ET base plate
--CCV and related hoses
--Rear subframe bushings and weld on reinforcement kit
--Oil pan gasket and weld in VAC oil pan baffle
--New flywheel and engine rear main seal, when existing clutch gives out (clutch has 50K miles on it)
--New harmonic damper on snout of crankshaft
Assuming I do one of those every 3 months, by the time I'm done it will then be time to replace the fuel pump, VCG, and OFHG all over again! :-)
Where do you see the oil concentrating?Quote:

There are many things I dislike about Memphis, but I do like that they are so lenient on tickets.
Then I drove it to work, she asked for some oil when I pulled into the shop, gave her a little, oil change is coming in another 100 miles or so (might be next year though). Valve cover gasket leak is getting worse (is only about 35,000 miles old). Something else to add to the list.
Three places:
1) on PS hose from reservoir to pump (before replacing) and high-pressure power steering line;
2) A little on the plastic undertray (possibly from PS hoses)
3) On oil pan and metal reinforcement tray
I replaced the high-pressure PS hose, OFHG and VCG about 3 years and 48,000 miles ago, so one of them could have started leaking again but the waffle part of block under OFH does not have oil on it. Maybe it's a combination of oil pan gasket and the PS hoses. I'm not sure if the high pressure PS hose is actually leaking (like the last one was 3 years ago) or if PS fluid was dripping from the reservoir-to-pump hose onto the high-pressure hose. Also a few times at track, AutoX, or during an oil change, I dripped oil onto the plastic engine covers and that oil dripped down to the bottom, but I'm quite sure in addition to that there is a leak somewhere.

You are brave. I won't even leave my car at an airport let alone let someone clean it while I'm gone.Quote:
