First the history:
A few days after I bought my S2 with 56,000 miles in 2000 the clutch went. The dealer sent me to his mechanic. I had his mechanic replace all the fluids while doing the clutch.

A few days after that the car overheated because the lowere hose was installed wrong, and the pulley cut it.

Hose was replaced, and the milkshake in the coolant started.

I replaced the O-rings three times. This last time the mechanic (a porsche expert) said it is the head gasket. He recommends rebuilding he head with a 3 angle valve job, valve stem & seals etc. total cost about $2,200.

Question:

I have already driven the car 16,000 with this condition, and the car drives great.

Should I have my wrench tighten/re torque the head to the block? Will that possibly stop the oil.

I get maybe 1 oz of oil in the coolant every 750 miles.

What else should be done if the head is removed? the car has 73,000 miles on it.

Should I just drive the car and wait till oil starts accumulating in the tank at a much greater rate?

Does anybody want to buy the car as it is? I have a ton of new stuff in the car.
