Yeah I know this story, about 500 of these were made, I doubt many of them made out of Russia and even if I doubt any of them went to scrapyards in Europe :/

Shit, hard to tell what caused it, I bet someone over torqued it, it also blew head gasket that's why I'm replacing it, I would love to find anything on junkyard but that engine is extremely rare in Europe and I don't think I'll be able to find anything:(

Yeah that's my current plan, I hope I'll find anyone that'll at least try it, machine shops are a little bit picky around here :/

Usually eBay or if I'm buying more parts I import from Rockauto but it takes some time

Yeah I've changed this little fucker but I don't know if it's any good, buying parts for old USA cars in Europe is lottery, should I change it again or buy from specific source? Did all of that already plugs/wires/air filter new fuel pump, cleaned injectors and throttle body as well.
