thanks, I already know it will chip, the clear coat turned milky, so had to scuff again and just paint it. Needs to dry out more and allow me to clear them better.
Also, I didn't tape the tires off, so they have some paint on them, but getting new rears.

Put 2 new tires on the car, the other 2 were like 7K miles old.
With the alignment, the car rides so much better. No shaking ass anymore.

Now just need to redo the front brakes and fix the window. Driver's window will no longer go up or down, needs a new motor and regulator.

it was just a low tire, bad alignment and maybe unbalanced tire causing the issues.

well, engine blew last week. bought one from a junk yard with similar mileage.

Anyone have any tips on what I can do to the new engine before putting it in?
Right now I plan on putting new plugs in it, cleaning the pvc and shit, getting timing chain guide. Also check rear motor mount (already replaced the other 2).
I have to clean the intake, my throttle body looks black.

Doesn't look like the timing chain was the cause. Will find out for sure though.

how much loss of power could a rod bearing cause though?

So some updates.
Got engine back in, replaces both oil seals, VC gaskets, and swapped over newish parts from old engine.

Got it running, then rear main blow out. Then alternator died. Dropped engine fixed both of those.

Got it running again. Then crank seal blows out. Replaced that and both belts.

Then it wont start. (See my other thread) Replaced both battery clamps and it runs again.

This weekend, changed oil, checked air pressure, and all fluids. Still have the CEL on and it should still be for the stupid variable timing.

The variable solenoid is what's causing your loss of power? At least it has nothing to do with trans, which is good. What horrible luck you've had recently though. what's your milage again?
