      Hey just one vowel away from Pat. lol.

      So now I have the kit in hand, and want to go instal it, but now I want a new water pump.

      So I'll have to wait to install everything still.

      Pat would be even more degrading, if you ask me.

      2007 with close to 70,000 on it. I drive more than you'd care to know. I plan to sell it by end of 09 or early 2010.

      In relate to the old SNL skit...'pat' I can see how that would feel that way, lol.

      No doubt.

      Will these 1.6's be good for 250k miles?

      I actually signed up for some bogus quakerstate warranty for 250k if I keep proof of every oilchange with quakerstate oil and filter.

      Thats out the window, as I wouldnt use a quakerstate filter. I couldnt find where they sell them (i think kmart) and filter tests indicated this filter was a rebadged poor quality unit.

      these cars would last a while with proper maintence, of course i would rebuild the engine about every 150k and make sure the tranmission has good fluid in it

      lol i wouldnt buy car things from kmart

      honestly. i wouldn't rebuilt the engine at 150k, probably at 200-250k.. but even then it would be the same cost less work and faster to run it until engine failure, and then buy a rebuilt, or a low mile junkyard engine and toss it in.
