    might be why its stalling...wtf is it

    ? about which timing cover gasket?

    Probably stupid question, but, are you talking about noticeable obvious-while-you're-driving-it "damaged", or when I take the cover off, might I notice something that requires the sleeve and seal?? Thanks Rick

    burning/burnt smell at highway speed???

    well, nothing ever smokes, the rear main seal was replaced last year. It doesn't smell like antifreeze, and there's no excessive brake dust, and the pads were replaced last year, and the shoes usually make noise when they go bad.
