This car is being offered to me at 2,000 with 100k miles.
Its cheap because there is oil in the water NOT water in the oil and the salesman wants to get rid of it.
Its drivable but it over heats after a while.
What do ya'll think I should do? I want it cuz its cheap but I dont wanna spend too much fixing it.
why is there oil in the water? and if you recognize the issue how much will it cost to fix?

buy it or not?

If its $349 I dont see a need for help on a decision

 

lol yea right! try again!

 

Damn, I keep posting before you finish editing lol. It says 349 on the window, assume it would be the asking price lol. Could fight for false advertising Anyways 2k is a good price, I got my 98 GT for 4500. Oil in the water though dosent make sense if theres no water in the oil.... I would be extremely cautious over this, it may be that some idiot put it in the wrong fill spot or the dealer changed oil to not show signs of a cracked gasket. Overheating is probably due to the oil issue though.

 

sounds like it needs a head gasket. And if thats all then 2000k is alright.

 

Damn, I'm trying to get to the botom of this because I dont wanna waste my money. How can I find out what the problem is? Checking the dip stick? ummm radiator flush and run the engine? Help me out man....lol
sounds like a good deal! Oh and how can I find out if the heads are cracked and/or if I ned gaskets?

 

haha sounds good if you say ot like that! haha
But, I dont know where to strart. I mean, I want to approach this with the mindset of saving money and getting a reliable car. Any advoce as to what to do? Maybe how to figure out the problem and how to check the dipstick etc....
