Or sell this one as is? I couldn't lie about its condition.
"What's next" is relative. Sorry for not being more clear. The fact is the engine is getting close to the end of its expected life. The stories of 200k, 250k or even 300k+ miles are great but more often than not sinking large sums of money into an engine of this age is a poor investment decision. It is my opinion that money would be better spent on a longer term solution (low milage used, quality rebuild, etc.) or another vehicle.

As others have stated, hoping it's as simple as the spark plug tubes….which is very likely…and you don't have to make the hard decision of how to spend $3K+
