Thanks for all the great info on this forum, guys. Finally starting to feel a bit like a more informed shopper for both 100s and 80s thanks to your patience and good advice. I’ve now learned that on a 95-97 with about 90K or so I should check –besides the usual condition etc-:
- front end (see zillion other posts)
- head gasket leakage (not that I can see much with all the stuff on top but I’m trying)
- red coolant
- VIN stickers
- Rust on back doors (not a problem in the PRK I assume)
But what about the engine? Should one have a serious mechanic check the compression or put it on an IR computer? A good idea? Anything else worth doing?
Thanks
Eric
