    At over ten years old, it's best to really consider the condition over the age. To keep it running well, it's good if you have a mechanic who knows how to repair and tune carburetors properly to ensure that it's running well. The LEC is not as efficient as a Corolla 1.3L but it has better power.

    Thanks for the heads up Vinj!

    Yup, I found a really good condish, well-maintained unit. It's selling at a hefty premium though. Pero if it's in good shape, i'd rather pay the extra to save myself from headaches. Pero hindi ko pa sya kinukuha.

    Ditto on the carb issue.

    Sometimes I'm thinking of getting an EFI based model nalang like the exalta STA or B14 super saloon. My aunt owned a 98 ex saloon MT before, i was her driver *kuno* for quite some time. I loved driving it kaso wala pa naman ako alam sa specifics ng kotse dati.hehe

    if you like to tinker, the carb model is ok. but if you just want to drive it, the efi will probably be the better choice. it's also probably more fuel-efficient.
