92 Dodge Spirit

[Paul]

I have a 92 Dodge Spirit. Bought in 1993 (former rental car) with
17,000 miles. Now has 107,000 miles. 2.5 liter engine. Had good
luck with car until about 100,000 miles. Since then have had to
replace oxygen sensor at 101,000, and head gasket (including
resurfacing cylinder head), timing belt, and water pump at 105,000.
Car now has a blow by on cylinder number 4 and will need piston and
rings at a minimum according to the mechanic who diagnosed it (not the
same mechanic who did the other work). I'm debating whether to junk
the car, have needed repairs made, or have a used engine or new short
block put in. Any suggestions?

all i say wil be my personal view. if you donot like the car, junk it. it
will cost you 1000 dolar if you put a new angine which is the market value
of the car.


PS: i put a new transmision in a 89 dodge dynasty with 194kmile. i love my
car. if i want to sell it, nobady will give me 500 but still i think it is
very classy
