the car is a 5 speed, the clutch was new when i bought it 10 months ago, so was the starter and the alternator was rebuilt, the interior is in very nice shape, it has blizzack winter tires as well as summer tires, i am probably going to be selling the tires separate though, so if anyone is interested in those as well pm me back, they were only used this past winter, i have never had any problems with this car at all until recently the engine stopped working, im am buying another 240 this weekend most likely, so this one will sit there until sold…it has a brand new jvc mp3 deck in it, infinity door speakers and pioneer bullet rear speaker, i may be taking the deck out and selling it separate, but if anyone is interesed in this car you can just give me a call (951-7991) ---

ok so i know whats wrong with the engine, and why coolant keeps coming in… Timing belt : Timing-chain tensioner tends to fail, damaging the timing cover and allowing coolant to leak into the oil pan. (1990) so if anyone knows how much this would be to fix, then buy my car, and fix it :tonqe: > **[Expert Car Reviews | Consumer Guide Auto | consumerguide.com](http://consumerguide.com/)** > > At Consumer Guide® Automotive, we strive to make the complicated car-buying experience less daunting, all while helping you pick out the vehicle that’s best for you.
