Timing Belt 850 1997

Timing belt, other belts, hoses, AC rubber parts, etc. - all that stuff has been replaced, all the service work brought up to date prior to purchase - new pollen filter, air filter, and so forth, as well as every brake component. Everything electronic, including the antenna, works.

Only annoyances so far are a weak keyless remote fob or sensor - the fob's from an earlier model car, that wierd alarm problem I mentioned in an earlier post, the fact that the car only comes with one key (was a wreck purchased at an auction in, I think, Chattanooga - bags were not blown), and shifting from third to fourth gear, the shift lever feels as if it is hitting, sometimes, a spot on the diagram between first and third - it doesn't just slide right in to third.

Jim Long Imports in Hillsboro, Tennessee, did all of the work on this one. It looks like a new car. They started the work in March, and finished up Thursday, so it ought to look good - practically a restoration, and the nicest car I've ever owned.

I'd post pictures somewhere and link to them, but my digital camera perished in the waters of Alum Creek, Ohio, when I failed to enter my kayak correctly, thus entering the water quickly and completely.
