Just got this this past sunday from a friend of mine up in Wisconsin.

Paid 250 bucks for the bad boy.It will start and run but has a rod knock.I figured for the price of another crank kit or even another engine ill be ahead with the gas mileage Ill save over the F-250.
Dark green paint,black interior.Has some scuff marks on the front and rear bumper on the left side and the interior is perfect.

Not to bad... Better keep a case of oil in the trunk, the older saturns burned oil off the showroom floor.

I just got back from Minneapolis on Thursday, you shoulda PM'ed me and I could have drug it back for you.

I had a friend up in Wisconsin that had bought it for me and towed it to his parents place in New Lisbon Indiana.I just drove over there and picked it up from his parents place with the 250 in the pic.Itll be nice getting gas mileage better than 8.

Oh,and I know that they are 4 stroke oil injected 4 cylinders.My mom had one for awhile,I had to hear her complain about adding oil all the time.

Does any one know what causes it to burn oil? Bad valve seals?
Thanks for the offer though,ill keep you in mind when I go out of state for some thing.I keep forgeting that you are everywhere in the U.S.

I had 2 of them and I agree, they burn oil like crazy. Better keep an extra alternator too as both of mine went out at around 30 - 40K.

We have one now, that has a rod knock. Let someone borrow it and got it back that way.

Hmmm, might explain why I can't seem to find a decently priced junkyard motor for it.
