that engine was almost as bad as mine when i got it. i had a pre-purchase inspection done (bought the car out-of-state), and the dealer said it would need a new battery. i thought that was strange, thinking that they probably wouldn't have done a load test on it. when i saw it i knew why - it looked like it was 20 years old! crap and brownish dust all over the engine compartment. i immediately put a new battery in, and the rest cleaned up nicely, though.
