If your buying used.. do a compression check BEFORE you buy it. You might even want to yank the valve cover if the seller will let you and look for excessive cam wear. I would also look at the distributor and check for play in the shaft. Trust me.. I sure wish I had been this thorough when I bought my MX-3.. then again.. if I had.. I probably wouldnt have it ;) Sometimes even mistakes can be a good thing I suppose :D
