Yeah. So doing the valves looks like they PO did the seals but didn't take the valves out and clean them so ima clean them. Alot of build up in the intake. That carbon craap. Had to chisel some of the head gasket seal off.Thinkin about using my 5.0 injectors since I have them until I find some 703s. Should be fine right? I'll take more pics tomorrow and probably post tues. What else would you guys like too see. Just cleaning stuff for now.lifters look fine. Some lip on the cylinder I'll clean it.

There are replacement injectors you can use that do not require changing the FPS. DFlintstone did a thread on 746 injectors. Search him and you'll find the thread link in his signature.

The stuff I wrote up is SUPER EASY to do.

I kid you not the ThrottleBody looked like it has never been off and cleaned. And the PO is a lieing **** I took a second look at the smog he got the vin an lic numbers were barely different I got tricked.
In the state of California, the SELLER is responsible for the smog...You can take him to court and get ALL of your money back. Thats fraud.

That's crazy I didn't know that. The thing is I don't think takin him too court for 500bucks is worth the trouble. Plus the bill of sale said as is and for 300$.

Abandon the liberal POS states. Let them die of their own actions.
