do you still have the car?

Got the TIming belt service done on my 98 Montero SR along with Cam seals, crank shaft seal, crank pulley, radiator hoses, etc. Total Labor was $740 and parts were $430. The waterpump kit bought from Rockauto didnt work, so Shop had to buy another waterpump. It matches the part number listed in...

do you still have the brushguard available?

i just did it a couple days ago. here are the pictures. there should be 1/4th of an inch flex in the belt. how much did you pay for the alternator?

I recently replaced my dieing alternator, it was covered in alot of oil that most likely came from the valve covers and the cam seal, but i checked the seal, it looked dry, so valve covers for a long period of time could be the culprit. the alternator ( rebuilt ) cost me $70 when i gave my old...

can anyone help me Change the title of the thread to " $500 1998 Montero Build?

I havnt updated this thread, but I changed the Spark Plug wires, Spark Plugs, valve cover gasket, intake gasket and Upper Plenum gasket. it seems like the car still has some hesitation, but i immediately felt the increase in power.

with the valve covers off, i only have these 2 photos. I was not the happiest with the Felpro Gasket, If i take off the plenum again, i will replace it with OEM valve cover gaskets. but it seems like i have no leak anywhere. I do have an automotive stethoscope. I will inspect the lifters as soon...

the video was taken with the plug wires in the wrong places. the sound is coming from one of the drive belts, I have motor mounts on the way so i will be changing that soon as well. There is no vacuum leak to my knowledge as isprayed starting fluid on the upper intake and lower intake areas, no...

If the firing order is correct, i had 2 in the wrong place, i fixed it according to the diagram. I made a video of the car idling. I will change the Fuel filter in a little bit, see if that helps it. I dont think i missed any connector. I replaced the Throttle body coolant lines with Silicone...
