The Mits engines in this era were ****. My g/f had a Mits something or other, add a quart of oil every tank of gas. My 86 cargo van had the 2.6 Mits engine. The owner rebuilt it in his house and it was strong and reliable all the years I owned it. Once those Mits engines were rebuilt they were amazing. Huh. how did I manage to buy an 86 cargo van in great shape with a rebuilt engine for $2200 in 1989. The thing was only 3 years old when I got it. I was only still a part time college prof. back then. what has happened to the world?
