1992 Geo Metro in fair condition. Runs and drives. 44-59+ mpg. This car lived in south east Utah so has no structural rust. Body has some minor imperfections here and there with some tiny spots of rust showing through the paint in spots. Engine was rebuilt on the cheap (new standard size pistons, ings and rod bearings, alve job) due to a broken piston skirt ataround107k miles. Engine should have been bored at the time but I wasn't sure how the rest of the car would run out so put as little money into it as possible. Cylinders are over specification so it does use a little oil (about 1 qt/4k miles at lower speeds and 1qt/2k miles at higher speeds. There is a fair amount of piston slap noise due to cylinder ware. This quietsdown considerable after the engine is warmed up. The oil consumption dirties up the combustion chambers enough to cause some pinging in warmer temperatures. One cylinder will sometimes miss fire for a short time on cold start up after sitting a while. Spark plugs stay white clean. Tires have about 8k miles on them. Both rear tires are a little out of round (cheap tires). A/C blows ice cold (32-35 deg. F on a hot day from center vents) and has been holding it's charge of R12 since at least 2004 and likely earlier!! Included in this auction is a 1992 factory service manual as well as complete service records since I have owned the car. 1st gear synchro is mostly shot so car must be nearly stopped before shifting into first gear. Recently flushed cooling system and replacedradiatorhoses before a 1324 mile trip. Other recent tune up items include spark plugs, lug wires, ist. cap/rotor and ignition coil. Brakes are in fair condition. Front rotors were replaced but have since warped again. Pads and shoes are in good condition.
