Well the last time it started my dad called and said he was dropping it off at my place and needed a ride home.

1999 EB 4.0 SOHC

300k miles, and starts when she feels like it

battery had 250cca so it has been replaced

gets spark but plugs look well used and I pulled the crimp out of a wire so new plugs and wires are due.

ABS moans and groans not really dealing with that for now...

Headlights don't turn off unless you slide the rearview mirror switch back and forth. Guess as long as the slider works it will be part of the shutdown now.

both banks lean looks like a intake seal kit is needed.

I dropped a socket into the abyss while doing the battery swap and then found lots of oil and residue while looking for it so there are some leaks.

So I found you in the search for tips and troubleshooting tricks and will be reading away.

This is a great site.
