    I’ll have to get the oil leak figured out, it’s not bad but I don’t want it leaking. If I recall don’t the pcv valves on these tend to gunk up and cause a slight oil leak? I just hope the steering issue isn’t bad. They say there is heavy movement in the steering linkage and play in the steering...
