Re: well that failed
My daughter bought a 97 highline. It was fine (with new headlights) for 2 years, then began using oil. Lots of oil. It would also shut off if you turned right from a stop-sign and used anything other than very light throttle. I finally pulled the engine in Jan. of 07. I replaced the rear main seal (that was the big leak), and the other main seal, the camshaft seal, the timing belt and water pump, and the heater hoses. I also repaired some melted wires in the harness that goes from the PCM to the engine, and soldered up the bad solder connections on the back of the instrument cluster. Replaced the starter at 140,000 miles. Its been almost trouble free since then, but is now misfiring from time to time. Its still being driven daily though. Im going to get a wiring harness from a boneyard, fix it up, and replace the one in the car. Its got a little over 160,000 now.
