no worries... thanks to Tom Townsend for his excellent site!
One reason I say these engines are tough is before the hg in our 2.1L started to go, we were slowly losing coolant for over a year. I noticed + topped off as needed + took to the dealer + our indy numerous times for diagnosis, but couldn't find a leak + was hard to diagnose until cylinder 1 blew... at one point early on I remember noticing the coolant tank was empty (after about 2 weeks)! who knows how much driving we did with such low coolant (I think it was winter though)... this was long before the hg finally crapped out and we lost power... no unrepairable damage though.
of course that was 7 or 8 years ago + I'm much more adept with cars now + would notice this much sooner... but it does say something about how tough those engines are!
James...
