Just making a first post - glad to join the club. Picked her up for $1000, interior in great shape, exterior in good shape considering the age. Changed the air filter and I'm almost certain it was the original.

To do list:
Oil pump piston replacement (got the flickering oil pressure light) - this weekend(timing belt while I'm there)
Trace down p0410 SAS CEL
PSR replacement - fluid just pours out the bottom on refill
Needs a fuel door - gonna hit up Timmy in AZ
Bumpers cracked and peeling paint - meh
Flush/fill radiator fluid
Figure out why the radio plays sometimes and then others it's just static - and also how to burn cd's that it doesn't reject :evil:
When cold, car starts on second try, or if I turn the key to on for 5-10 seconds, it starts right up
When warm, after turning the car off, when starting the engine makes one knock during start up

You may see more from me soon!
