Sounds like you're on the right path.

Just don't skimp on the PM at this point, or needed repairs.

I'd be careful if you do a plug change; maybe someone can chime in here but at 93K my plugs almost didn't want to budge.

There's a trick to doing it.

You break the plug loose, then tighten it back up.
Then loose again, and if it starts getting hard to turn, go back tight then out again.

That got all mine out with no problems, and they were the original plugs still at >120k miles

I've changed 5-6 sets of plugs on G/Z's and never run into that issue.



Skater - congrats on the new buy. Get some pics. You will probably need to at least get a plenum spacer and HFC. Top 2 NA mods and are subtle enough not to make you hate driving

I used to do this with rusty stuff. Good tip.

Where I live a dealer was trying to sell me an 03 Sedan with 140K for 11Grand. I'd buy one with 150 for 6 for sure.

Still can't believe how much he wanted for that when I was looking
