I don't know yet how many miles are on the motor but I was told by the owner that it has a blown head gasket (which is what he was told by his mechanic). He said you can drive it about 50 miles before it overheats and then you also have to add coolant.

Any information is greatly appreciated.........


Thanks
Valve guide seals are a problem but I just keep adding oil to it and it keeps on trucking. 192K and still going strong.
