Okay did this problem develop suddenly or come over time. Am I to understand you serviced this car with synthetic oil and the previous owner did not. If so did this problem start after the switch?

pretty much it started after the switch. it has been going on for about 6-8 months.it looks like the i have to narrow odwn to replacing head gasket, timing belt, water pump, oil pan gasket, and do a valve adjustment to get it running normal. am i goign in the right direction or if not can you suggest other thingsi need to look over?

What has probably happened is the thermostockle valve has probably blocked the kineuter and it's gonna shell some shit out

so i should just save my money and look at newer engines. i dont know what oil was put in the engine before i switched but when i got the car i went to Jiffylube but after that i switched to synthetic. so should i just put regular mobill in there? and should i clean the pan ad the screen with acetone?

Sounds like you've got a multitude of problems.

I would suggest either an engine swap or a tear down and rebuild. You might look at doing it yourself with the help of a mechanic on the side. Since you work at a parts store, you should know who you'd like to help you.

Another option would be to look at a new engine, maybe from Jasper or something else with a REAL warranty.

Sounds like you've got problems in the head and short block.

I clean all of my oil pans and pick-ups with a specific cleaner. Since I use this cleaner in the "Extreme Detail for Extreme Profits" tm instructional video and the moderators dont want to hear about my idea , I guess I just cant tell you now can I?????
