Have you had your gas tank cleaned out? I've heard of this problem from
quite a few people (and it happened to my wagon before I got it) and all
of these cars had one thing in common: they were ran with old gas.
Modern gas seems to break down into a tar like substance and the only
way to get rid of it is to clean the gas tank. If you don't you'll end
up fighting sticking valves and bent push rods.
