Yes........many sellers tell people the problem with the engine is a pump, or thermostat, or radiator, which they all may be bad.........but the real problem is the BHG.

And......every 7m motor in the world will have a BHG at some point in time.

Unless the car is really cheap, like $500, I would never buy one that I could not take for a test drive for about 30 minutes to see how things are.

And for other people, I tell them to have their mechanic look over the entire car and estimate all the repairs it will need so you can drive it every day.
