I keep going back and forth on the keep/sell issue. Maybe I should quit complaining and just do my maintenance. Do you think it is practical for me to put the tbelt and balance shaft belts on, 'finger tension' them and gently drive it to the dealer 3 miles away and have them tension it? Is that safe? I'm, maybe even excessively (sp?) paranoid about tbelt failure. I know for sure that my balance belt is there. I don't know if it's timed right and everything.
BTW I test drove a 88 745 b230 5spd 110k just to see if I would like it.
Departing thoughts: IT WAS HORRIBLY UNDERPOWERED! I don't think I could stand driving something that slow. It seemed reliable, well maintained and bulletproof. Looked good though; nice shade of blue.


Thanks - Nate
