Thank you for your answers Harley and sseebart. And Harley, I don't have the shop manual yet. Every time I go to buy one I check this forum first and get a quick answer. I will need the manual soon though.
One issue with my car is the passenger exhaust manifold is cracked. I repair it using something called Pyro Putty 2400 which should last a long time, but for some reason the repair fails and then you smell some fumes and hear the tick...tick...tick sound of an exhaust leak.
So when I smell fumes I know I have to repair the manifold again. I know this is kind of a pathetic way to get along but replacing the exhaust manifold is not an option for me right now. That'll get done when the motor needs to get rebuilt which won't be for a long time.
