    I did it myself, for less than $30. It wasn't unnecessary, as now it runs better and burns less oil than before. It also isn't leaking externally anymore.

    e-brake is long gone.... both cable ends snapped months ago. Driving I know has a part in it, it has been very cold, tons of idling, and lots of wheelspin.

    Oh... wait, maybe that wasn't such a good idea to automatically assume it was the HG's fault... maybe that $30 on a comp tester would have been well spent after all?
    Read above. It definitely needed it regardless of a compression test result.

    Negative! Lightning has the interior out except for the seats and dash, Headlights out, Eyebrows off, I got the dent in the right quarter panel mostly out. I'm planning to have it back together for Spring Festiva L.

    coil and ICM

    I put in a new Ignition Control Module recently after it died at a stoplight.....real convenient. Put a coil in first and after that didn't do it I picked up an ICM and bam! Fired right up and Stiv is back in action.

    Next will be all four struts and coils....LCA's, rotors, front brakes, wheels and tires.
    Peace.

    Oh, and what have you done to blue lightning, eh? Surely not as much as I, sir!

    Ran Danny's car with some starter spray for a few seconds. The fuel tank is off right now to be cleaned and then I'll get to find out if it can run on gas Also picked up the other LCA but didn't have time to install it due to messing with the fuel tank.
