yeah, understood.. but alos that is a typical problem when buying used..
same thing when bought this '95 DAk used.. I gave it a good going over,
oil change, trasnmission check etc.. but I would have never guessed I need
to pull the oil pan and have the sum checked... $3G later and I have new
motor in it.. I still wouldnt trade it for nothing...
