Heck yeah this board rocks. I love both responses!! Definitely cleared up my worries. I’ll give the oil cap test and the blowing test a try.

I used original parts in both replacements. I don’t know if the belt has ever broken. The car was pretty beat when I bought it. Granted, it only had 128K on the clock.

For what it’s worth, I use synthetic. I have no other known oil leaks. The main leak was the front cam seals, but I replaced those which stopped the leak.

I’m just happy I can put the stick back in!
