Help! Need Advice
 

My grandparents have had this car for 22 years, the car has not been run nearly as much as it should to keep it in good condition:frown:. So since i am going to get this car i would like to know anything and everything i can so i know what to do when something goes wrong. I know the head gasket is one of the most troublesome things about this car but thats really all i know.

The car is a MKIII, engine is a 7MGTE. Any advice would be much appreciated.

basically your just going to have to be attentative to what the cars doing, and take things as they come. do a tune up, oil change, a coolant flush, tranny and rear end fluid exchanges...that oughta get everything freshened up.

if it hasnt had any HG issues yet, you might want to think about retorquing the head bolts to 72lb ft. other than that, its either modifying things or tackling it when ever a problem crops up. good luck with it!
