I have a 95 (1.0) 5 speed metro with 135k on it. I bought it with 120k on it. It‘s been a great car -when it works, but it's given me nothing but problems. Something went wrong on almost every commute I made. Hoses popped, radiator died, clutch died, transmission needed rebuild, etc. Well, I guess it finally got overheated one too many times (a hose burst on me yesterday) and I'm getting rough starts, tiny bit of milky color in the oil, and upon pulling the platinum spark plugs, I noticed that the white material around the tip of the plug had heat bubbles on it. Anyways, to spare the readers from a page long post, I want to know if: A. It appears as if only two of the cylinders are toast, so if she starts, can I drive ‘er? B. I know a few mechanics who would help me replace the engine, so should I buy a JDM on Ebay? C. Where can I find a step-by-step guide on pulling the engine? D. I’ve had a lot of trouble with this car, and I’m worried that it will turn into a money pit, so is it worth replacing the engine? E. How much does it cost to have a throw-out bearing replaced, and where is it located?
