Re: what should i look at when buying a manual car?
the guy said it's 170k on the body and 90k on the rebuilt. one of the valve leaks or something like that (how much will that cost to fix/replace? or would it be better to buy the car, then rebuilt the engine in the summer or something like replace worn parts/ put some mods maybe...
a leaking valve cost a little more than $30 to fix...im guessing you dont pick up on sarcasm very well?one word: Crankwalk

hey, so i spoke with the guy today, i misunderstood him, he said the oil valve COVER is slightly leaking, and i did a little research, that's not much to fix.

It's a couple bolts to take off, and a few new seals to throw on.. It's really easy. Do the spark plug tube seals also, and you might as well throw in some new spark plugs because they're cheap.
