The notorious LIM...
No words needed...
Losing antifreeze slowly... looks like I am sharing my mom'* intrigue with her until my dad and I get a chance to rip it apart...

We are borrowing a friend'* garage and I am going to be taking it apart myself... the only part I am hesitant about are the fuel lines.
Any helpful hints with any or all of the work?

Out of curiosity, how many miles do you have on your car?
Oh, and make SURE you get all the coolant out of your upper/lower intake.

I have 138,000 miles on my car... and I am going to be doing some research, but is there a guide or order in which to take the engine apart to get to the LIM? I did a Series II last winter with my dad on my mom'* intrigue, but I was wondering if there were any recommendations or hints on the order.

How much antifreeze should i expect to lose while doing this? I see that our system holds 3.17 Gallons... I was thinking of getting 2 gallon jugs of prestone (not premixed) and just adding water with it.

that sounds like a good plan, but in order for that to work, you need to completely drain the block.
