[TrD3sgte94]

ok heres the deal i have had 3 7afes the first one blew because i didnt keep updated on the oil that was when i was really unexperienced but the other 2 have been problems coming from a junk yard and i recently changed out my motor by myself and it was over heating and running kinda slugish and had a major vaccum leak. i was driving and then it started slowing down my first thought was maby i timed it wrong so i made sure it was TDC (top dead center) and pulled the cap and rotor and checked and made sure it pointed to number one on the distributor so i figured that wasnt the problem i checked for any loose or unconnected vaccum lines and sure enough all i found was 2 bolts missing on the top of the intake manifold but that wasnt why it died and wouldnt start. next i checked the spark plugs when i pulled the plug wires the were all gooey and melted and the bushings were melted on the top of the spark plugs so i had to stand outside a restraunt for 2 1/2 hrs. digging the the bushings and spark plugs out then i walked to autozone and bought bosch platinum 4's w/ bosch 5mm plug wires and put those on then drove home and started taking things apart and troubleshooting the main problem. it turns out the thermostat and sensors wich was causing the fans not to work so i pulled off the thermostat housing and replaced it with the one from my old engine and the fans then started to work and i changed the fuel rail and injectors to fix the running sluggish and for anyone who changes out there engine with one from a junkyard trust me make sure you get all sensors and bolt ons from your old engine and make sure everything works great before leaving after you put it in.
