Hi guys, this isn't a Miata of course but I'm wondering something about this car, bein' a Mazda...
It's a 1990 Protege SE (yah- the SOHC) with 5 spd tranny.
All that's been replaced is the water pump, alternator (150Kmiles) and timing belt and spark plugs, CVs once...everything else is original including the transmission/clutch.
Do these things just last forever or what? Right now it has over 205,000 miles and just keeps on trucking getting 35mpg @ 70mph on the highway- I'm just wondering what the lifespan of the motor and tranny will be?
TIA, Richard
