Do a Compression Test Posted by Greg Abbott [Email] (#2746) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Greg Abbott) on Tue, 19 Jun 2007 06:18:50 In Reply to: 1990 mystery car with 705,000 miles, Michael erhardt, Tue, 19 Jun 2007 05:08:57 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
You ought to do a compression test on the motor, just to see what it says after 705,000.
Does the engine run? Perhaps also check the oil pressure while running and see what that it as well.
There's no reason to assume that the motor has to be changed. If the motor made it to 705,000, it must have been properly maintained. I'd say keep the motor unless you have some evidence of problems.
