Well, I got to thinking again.
Wait, come back.
Is it possible to rebuild my car's engine without removing it from the vehicle, and if so, presuming I had access to the requisite parts, tools, and whatnot, could I feasibly do it on my own?
And no, I'm not particularly mechanically gifted. I can tie my own shoelaces though, so that gives me hope.
I ask because I love my car, but cannot afford to spend several thousand dollars on a new engine or to get it rebuilt for me. Apparently, my engine has the following existing conditions:
- "general" oil leak
- "rear" oil leak
- "front" oil leak
- intake manifold leaking internally (possibly)
- head gasket failure (possibly)
So I figure the best option is to just rebuild the goddamn thing. It's nuts and bolts and metal, right? Common sense, patience, and some Timbits should make me right as rain.
Any comments appreciated, even if it's to tell me not to bother. ._.
