Good news (Vespa) followed by bad (Sunchaser).

2 oil leaks, including 1 in the oil pump, and a coolant leak from the water pump. One leak will require removal of valve cover and timing chain cover, so we might as well do the timing chain as well. $2400 of unplanned auto repair.

Ouch.

It’s a Toyota. It’s supposed to leak oil.

just to join in on the misery... someone killed my bessie at work (well.. severely injured)... bessie being what ive decided to call the 20+ year old spotwelding machine i work on a lot.. i think someone drove a forlift into the cooling system and rather than fess up hid the evidence.... water everywhere when i tried to start her up...

poor bessie.... the new not constantly breaking machines are no where near as fun to work with

No, just leak oil. Not break every time you turn it on.

Hate unplanned maintenance costs, but please tell us you’re going to Radwood in San Fransisco!
