    three cylinders

    This car still runs, but only on three cylinders, and the injector "O" rings leak on 2 of the injectors.
    Iam thinking of buying this car does this sound like it would cost a lot to fix and or what should i ask him about on the engine any ideas?

    what is causing the fourth cylinder not to run? see what that will cost to fix and then decide. the o-rings really should only cost like $15-20 tops, and that's new jersey auto parts store prices.

    i forgot to mention only if the body, suspension, frame, interior, etc. are in really good condition. otherwise is just like having a POS sitting in your drive that youll probaly never get around to. i still have mine
