OMG I found a Creampuff on Craigslist on 1/2/12!
89 year old original owner Lady passed away and her Son was selling it. Only went to Church, store, hairdresser & saturn dealership for ALL maintenance.
Info:
Garaged all the time 2000 SL2, Light Gold with 2 tone brown cloth seats. Cruise, Traction Control, AC, PW, PL, Power Sunroof that's in pristine condition. Paint, seals, rubbers are like brand new!!
No road chips, no door dings, quality car washes as I see no fine scratches like you see around the Sun's reflection on most cars. It GLOWS!
NEVER SEEN SNOW - she stayed home! Almost no rust underneath!
What's been done (ALL at the Saturn Dealer, I have every receipt)
"20" Oil changes in 33k miles (Avg. 1 every 1650 miles).
Oil & Filter changes every 6 months at: 1270, 2036, 2347, 4421, 5988, 7527, 8864, 11269, 12502, 14653, 16257, 19403, 21637, 22447, 25490, 26625, 27629, 29181, 30415, 31796, 33079, and 33080 miles. Last 2 the car sat for a year, so 2 oil changed within 1 mile.
- 12,000 & 18,000 mile services done.
- Fuel filter & Air Filter changed 2 times.
- Rear Wheel Cylinders, Injector Cleaning, Fuel Pressure Regulator, Battery & cables, Water Pump (YAY!), Intake Manifold Gasket (YAY!).
What I just did:
- Amsoil PI full bottle - 1/2 tank into it.
- Cleaned the PCV
- Spark Plugs: Original, so new NGK's in 2 days ago.
What's planned next:
- Oil & Filter: After 1 tank of Redline is done - Pennzoil & PureOne Ext. Length.
- ECTS: Original from 2000 & needle sits barely 1 needle width above 1/4, so new ECTS this weekend!
- Plug Wires: Are Original.
- Auto Trans: Original fluid, may go to Amsoil Synthetic soon.
- Coolant/Thermostat: Both original. Dexcool, so out that goes and in a new Stant also this weekend.
- Brake Fluid
Anything else soon?
Could be an interesting experiment in keeping the oil burning at zero.
What do you think?
What would you do if you had this?
