Well i was driving around the other day, and my engine on my 91 s13 blew up.. Apparently the oil plug had fallen out somehow.. no oil, bad engine. My question is: should i keep the car?? Ive spent roughly $3000 on the car and all i have to show for it is a car that needs a complete rebuild except for the brakes and tires. Every other aspect of the car needs some work, from the radio to the exterior. THe only good things are that its my car and its inspected, registered, and insured lol. so what do you guys think??

my friend threw out a rod due to oil starvation, my advice is get another KA, when mine got messed up i got another 96 KA with 46000 miles for $250, and just swapped it in.

Ive decided to keep it. For now, ill drive my silverado and the 240 gets a nice blanket to cover it while it rests. Thanks for the feedback guys.
