Do you love your car? If ya do it doesnt matter what the fizzack ya paid for it, I got real lucky and found one that had been sitting for about 4 years without gettin cranked up and a so called Rotary enthusiast told the owner the motor was shot without doing any testing to it because in his words, "Those motors are crap and they wont hold up sitting all that time without being started." Yah I drove it home 3 days after seeing it
