Yeah, and I only have 152K on my 90 Carat and still no problems with the
engine, what gives? The Syncro, on the other hand, had 157K on it when I
bought it and I had the engine rebuilt because I was told that was the
only way I could pass emmisions. Now at 196K, it's still running fine and
I'm not so sure I wasn't "scammed" into doing the engine work because I
still had to take it to the dealer for more tunning before it would pass.
