I would check the compression on the engine (or take it to a shop that can). This would give you an idea of the health of the engine. If the compression is good then the starting problem is probably something with either the fuel injection or timing and shouldn't be too pricey to fix. However if the engine is tired then you could use this as leverage to get the price a bit lower (it would have to be if you factored in getting a new motor for it). I hope this helps you.

Thanks, Ken Wilford Van-Again John 3:16 http://www.vanagain.com Office: (856)-765-1583 Fax: (856)-327-2242
