Should I do it? Trade my 92 Yukon for a 97 OBW?

[211]

I've got a 1992 2-dr GMC Yukon 4WD that I'm looking to sell and or trade for a Subaru of equal condition or value you can see it here on craigslist.

Some lady just offered up her 96 Legacy Outback w/ 150k. She says there's "NOTHING" wrong with it, just had it serviced etc. Other than that I don't know much about it. Obviously I'd check it out before I committed to anything, but assuming it was in "good" condition should I go for it?

 

I asked her if the timing belts have been changed, still waiting to hear back.

 

PS havent had anyone busting down my doors wanting to trade out their Soobs either. This is the first person.

If it's a 2.5 liter check out the HEAD GASKET. There are plenty of threads about that in this forum.

 

There was recall/warranty stuff that was required to "treat" the head gasket. If not, lookout for coolant and oil loss. Once the engine is hot, look out for that sickly sweet smell of antifreeze around the exhaust or engine.

 

Good Luck.
