Well if you hear a ticking from the bottom of the engine then you definetly walk about because that car has already walked . But i would still like to know the questions i asked. It might help a bit

Listen for ticking sound liek they said. And other symptoms. A friend of mine gst just crank walked. But he beats the crap out of his car. He heard the ticking sound start for awhile but thought it was just the same ticking as my car. His is all the time and mine is only at cold start. Eventually his crank angle sensor broke and his car doesn't start. ^_^.. he ballin so he is ordering a 6 bolt and having it installed.

Yea the miles are kinda getting up there. But id take it for a drive and see how hard it is to get into the gears and which ones. A 6-bolt swap is about a 2-3k job including the motor. Here is a link on the instructions

But i would only do that if you plan on building up the motor, or you really would like the spend the extra money for precautionary measures because the 7-bolt replacement will be cheaper. Its really all on what you plan on the car.

But im getting ahead of myself. Figure out what is wrong with the car first. Personally if it was me i wouldnt bother buying it at that price if the motor needs to be replaced because you can buy a shell cheap or a car with a blown motor. Know what i mean

i agree, the price doesn't measure out to the work that need so to be done if it needs engine work.
