Tired Engine

WhosYourSupra · 03-05-2007, 01:31 AM

Hi to all,

As i am a noob i am going to make my first thread about a supra that i have located (for $750) that has a great transmission, Mint interior, And mint body. The problem is it has a tired engine and the guy that owns it just will say that it has 200000 miles and that the motor is TIRED. My guess in that he lost compression in two cylinders but has anybody else heard of this problem.

I haven't bought this car YET. I plan to pick it up sometime this week, if this prb isin't tooooo huge.

why would you guess it had a low comp in two cylinders?

I would guess that because it has around 200000 miles and that is pretty norm for motors. I am just guessing but i will get a compression test before i buy it. My other guess is that he hasn't done a tune up in a while and that it could be an easy fix but idk.
