If I told you that reading your post made me sad, would you consider paying me $150 to make me happier?

I don't see how you have any moral or legal obligation to help the buyer. Pre-Purchase Inspections are always recommended on this forum. If the money spent was significant to the buyer, he should have had one done before the purchase. If you sold what you believed to be a good car and he purchased it without duress, the future of the car is his. His choice of mechanic, his choice of how to address the claimed deficiency. Sorry for his loss.
