I'm in desperate need of my own vehicle for winter.... and the thought of spending the snowy months in a miserable 92 Chrysler Dynasty brings shivers and unthinkable fears.....
I think it's definitely worth a closer look. Have you seen it in person yet? Could turn out to be a good buy for $400. Beat it for the winter and build it in the spring.
not seen it yet, it's a 5hr drive away from where I am right now, and it would need an out of provence safety inspection if I did get it, that's another $100. Ideally, I'd only want it to have a few things wrong that I could put right...
how do you do a compression test? is it something that goes in place of the spark plug? I was looking for that tool that reacts to the gasses given off by a blown gasket... sniffer?
Compression Guage screws into the spark plug hole and then you spin the engine over and read what the Guage says.
there are some block tester kit out there for checking for a blown head gasket but they are hard to find local auto part stores have to try a specialty place for something like that
