EB2 GLi manual wagon coming up to 430,000 on the original enine box & diff. Fairmont speedo in it reads just under 220,000.

Timing chain is a bit rattly when cold & it isn't what you would call fast anymore but the only oil that it uses is because it leaks a little. Head gasket was replaced 290,000 ago.

I would put some effort into replacing the rear main seal but as do that I would rather drop in an AU engine.

My first EB2 newin 1993 had done 190,000 in 2 years when it was replaced with an EF that did 100,000 during it's firs year.
