Hi
If you have a leak, perhaps you won't need to replace the engine at all. It could be something relatively simple, costing a fraction of 2K providing the engine is still in good shape. I'd invest in getting the engine steam cleaned and see where it is coming from - what do you have to lose, if you may replace the engine anyway? For 4K you can probably get a newer car -- it seems excessively high for a repair. Hope this helps.

I got a 94 Civic EX for $2300 here in NYC a few months back, courtesy of craig's list. 112K then, in great shape. Got a few things to do, but they're all normal wear and tear as far as I can see. |

>From: "Woody" >Date: 11/21/2004 4:23 PM Eastern Standard Time >Message-id: m> > >Why do you need a new engine because of an oil leak? ****** We took the 93 Honda to the Honda dealership. They said that the source of the terrible oil leak and the car running terribly was a small hole in the engine. They said it could not be fixed. Note: We had to tow the car to the nearby Honda dealership, because we couldn't get it to run. It would start for a few seconds, but it made terrible noises before it suddenly cut off. Oil spit out all over the driveway under the Honda just to the right of the oxygen sensor that sits at the front of the engine just behind the radiator. > > >"MIRSE" > wrote in message ... >> My stepfather bought a 93 Honda red 2-door hatchback Civic when it was >> new so >> his grandkids could have something to drive. >> >> Now it has a terrible oil leak, and the only thing to do is get a new >> engine. >> >> >> It has a little over 200,000 miles. >> >> It has been sitting in my stepfather's driveway for around 6 months. >> >> My stepfather said he got an estimate for around $2000 to put a new >> engine in >> it. >> >> I said that such an estimate is low, and I think it would be close to >> $4000-$5000 range to get a good engine installed in this 93 Honda Civic >> 2-door >> Hatchback and to get the Honda back in good working condition. >> >> I told him that it would be a waste of money, because he could probably >> get a >> good running used car in the $4000-$5000 range. >> >> My question: Can my stepfather really get a good engine installed in the >> 92 >> Honda Civic Hatchback---one of those red ones I see everywhere---for >> around >> $2000, or will it cost more in the $4000-$5000 range? >> >> Thanks for your help. > |
