The time sitting did take its toll, however. The car has no power and pops upon acceleration. Some valve problem I suppose. I spent about $2,000 trying to fix this before I gave up and decided to drive it till it quit. Last summer (2014) when I got it out it started leaking oil really bad. I thought it was finished and did not drive it it all. I decided to have the engine rebuilt and just recently took it to the shop. It turns out that the oil leak was just a bad oil sending unit so I actually could have driven it last year and maybe this year too, but I guess it's time for the new engine. This one currently has a little over 183,000 on it. They are supposed to start taking the engine out today. !!
