I am still hesitant to dig into engine work, but want to start replacing things like a few vacuum hoses that I can't access without dismantling some items. I bought new silicon replacement kit, but there are three or four that I need to get to. Also, I want to change plugs, wires, cap/rotor, etc, and have been a little intimidated to go in there. I have already replaced brake master cylinder, calipers, clutch master cylinder, clutch line, etc, so I should feel more confident, but don't like suprises. The water pump is also original. It doesn't leak yet, but in your opinion, is it worth taking the plunge and just go visit the so called "valley of death", and replace everything? What about fuel injectors/lines. I've seen the water pump replacement procedures on the tech page, and believe I can handle it. Are there any surprises to change plugs, wires, and the few vacuum hoses I have left?
