As stated in the first post, both the timing belt and the head were replaced. That was due to a timing belt failure. The mechanic which we now know to be very incompitent, said it was just easier to get another head. He purchaced a head from a running vechical and said it was guaranteed. When he braught it to us the first time the belt wasnt very tight and had slipped at least 1 tooth on the crank. Second time i went to him and the belt was still loose. his excuse was that he was leaving it loose till he was sure the timing was right. DUMBASS@@@

I want to get the pos back from him so i can run a leakdown test on cyl 3 to see if it might have bent a valve when it slipped or the head had a bent valve in the first place. I asked him if he had the head pressure tested and he sayed "no, it came off a running car" DUMBASS@@@@

I did not choose this mechanic... her mom did, he was friend of family who did their car work. Theres alot more to this story to so his ignorance but it would take alot of typing.
