Hi all,
If someone could please advise while I'm currently replacing my valve cover gaskets, plugs and COP's, what else should I be replacing while I've got the engine disassembled this far? I hate to put it all back together and find out later that I should have changed something else while I'm this far into it.
The car is a 2003 Lincoln LS V8 with 84k miles. I see where this engine does not have a PVC valve so I'm just wondering if there is anything else that's worth replacing (as in preventative maintenance) before I finish my VCG job and reassemble everything. I'm not looking to replace things that aren't broken, only to identify parts that will eventually need replacing as part of a future scheduled maintenance or past maintenance that I may have missed.
Thanks so much.
