122588, Buying a car need help
Posted by Blakkjak, Aug-31-06 08:25 AM
Well I caught a pretty good deal in my area on a talon and I thought about getting a second car and when I msg'd seller this is what he replied..


"there is a starter motor problem and a rocker arm knocking. i think it would make the drive but i is not recommended as it might damage other parts"

How big of a problem is this and how much $ is it to fix? I thank u in advance for the answers.

Starter = no problem. Push start the bitch.

"Rocker knock?" I don't think so. Lifter tick? Maybe. It's worth pulling the valve cover and looking around a bit. If it's got head issues, you might be able to spot them.
