so ive been talking to a guy i kno about buying his daughters daily driver...a 1992 240sx fastback...it has a stock ka24de motor and has 141k miles...so he had her park the car to do some maintnance on the car before selling it...before he started working on it the car had sat for a week or so...when he started it it was smoking bad so he shut it off...the good news is now he'll give it to me for 300$ because he doesnt have the time to look at it and fix it...the bad is idk whats wrong with it...his guess was either a blown head gasket or a cracked block cuz he could see oil dripping down the block...but i havent looked at it yet so idk.....

what should i do and what do you think is wrong with it?

if it is the block does anyone have a ka24de motor for sale or that they are willing to part wiht?

any help or opinions are greatly apprecitated

thanks all....happy holidays
