Replaced it today and it started right up. However, it couldn't even make it to autozone about a mile down the road without beginning to overheat. Oil level looked fine when I got there but I noticed oil dripping on the exhaust manifold. Probably from that driver side leak you are talking about. After I replaced the solenoid, my car threw a code for something wrong with the solenoid. Whenever I rev the car above 3k rpm, I see white smoke from the exhaust, which makes me think head gasket. I plan on playing with it more tomorrow.
