NEWBY HERE.. Quick Q

Post by midrange »

Hey, new here.. Hows it going..

Quick question, i have my chance to get my hands on a 93 mx3. The body and exterior is great. But the problem is it has a stock motor with about 250000k on it. Should i be expecting problems in the near future with such high kms. As of right now it runs really well and has been well maintained.

Let me know, thanks

My 93 GS with the stock motor has 191,000 miles on it, and it still runs strong! It just drinks oil...
No more MX-3.

That is alot of km
I dont know much about the 4cyl MX3s, go ask the 4cyl board and ask them for known problems with them
Also, you might want to ask them if you can do a compression test (or have a mechanic do it for you)
