Then the cylinders run lean since the O2 sensors get confused and your burn up a piston leading to a HUGE rebuild cost.

There is also the issue with valve guide problems.

Fix these two (or find one that has) you have a much more solid car.

Ironically I was looking a year ago -- but the wife said you can have all the Porsches you want -- but the first Ferrari you buy will cost you 1/2 -- as in 'the 1/2'

And yes I do have my share and (then some) of P-cars.
