I get that a lot!
I have been built and maintained engines long enough to know what kills them - improper / lack of maintenance and driving them hard. I do neither.
The SOHC 1.9 motor makes a whooping factory rated 90 hp - maybe! Most drivers are impatient and drive WOT between stop lights thinking they are getting somewhere. That will burn up these little motors quick.
