Well my engine is leaking from alot of places right now, Not huge leaks but i do have to replace alot of seals, also there is oil inside my timing cover and the timing belt needs to be changed....So who here has rebuilt the 5S? I see the price to replace everything in my engine will be the cheapest way for me doing it myself, i just cant afford a mechanic right now...BUT the only thing holding me back is my lack of knowledge at this point. I am pretty determined and would love to do this task, but how difficult will this be? Thanks..

No such thing as a full rebuild kit. You can buy a gasket kit that comes with the majority of the seals and such, but bearings and rings and hardware are separate.
my gasket set was $223 --------------------  |

The only things i question on these kits are... How good are the oil and water pumps? Also will the 97-01 kit fit the 94 5s? -------------------- 1994 ST204- 5sfe Currently being rebuilt 1994 AT200-Awaiting Build |
