Well friends, I've inherited a slightly non-running Oldsmobile Calais with
the weaker Quad 4 engine and a 5 speed. The previous owner says it needs a
head gasket as it belched tons of white smoke while driving it home that
fateful night. He said it felt down on power and made large clouds easily
obscuring his rearward vision at night. He said that he started it again a
month ago and drove it around the block and it wasn't smoking at that point.
I asked if there was any oil left in the engine. ;^)
Are there any good Quad 4 hop-up or general info/maintainance sites on the
web? Hmm, now I'm back to my first car marque but with only half the number
of cylinders. ;^)
Thanks in advance folks.
