Sounds good, thanks for the help.

Does anyone have an estimate on how much TestDrive's list of replacement parts would cost?

If there's a minor oil leak, should I rebuild the engine and replace the gaskets? Could I rebuild an engine in a couple weekends if I'm decently handy?

I rarely see a metro pop up on Craigslist around here (central IL, so Champaign-Urbana, Springfield, Decatur, Peoria). If I see a ratty old 3cyl manual, should I jump on it? How much is too much to pay for a metro that may need engine work?
