First, let me say I'm new to the group so if this post if off-topic please let me know.
My issue:
My wife has a 95 sunfire that she loves. Sadly, due to high milage (175,000) this car has become a money pit! Someone recommended we have the engine re-built and keep the car for another 100,000 miles. Is this realy an option for use? The body and frame of this car are in great shape but the head gasket is strarting to leak and it burns some oil (about a quart per 3000 miles).
What could we expect in terms of extended life if we have the engine re-built?
What factors besides body and frame condition should we consider before doing this?
Does anyone have any experince with a re-built engine in a Pontiac car?
Thanks in advance,
David
