^Makes sense. You have to draw the line somewhere between preventative maintenance and if-it-ain’t-broke-don’t-fix-it. For someone with my time and ability, my chains are going to get awfully noisy before I worry about it. Plus I think they revised the guides sometime before my car was built so they last longer. I don’t know if my water pump is a likely failure, but again it’ll wait till it’s a problem.
