Take a chance on a 91 TT?

[Speednz]

Hi guys, I am a Z enthusiast and currently own a built turbo 350z on 15 psi and a 84 300zx (z31). I have had a couple other Z's, 280zx, etc. So I've been looking around trying to fill th gap between the two years and found a 91 300zx NA with 80k miles. So the teen who has it, decided to buy a TT engine out of a wrecked car and do the swap himself. He stated that since the engine swap, two cylinders have not fired. Since the car was in a wreck he assumed the engine was fine and the engine only has 85k as well. He said he has not been able to get those two cylinders to fire in this new motor period. I mean my thoughts are it could be as simple as two spark plug wires being switched, or it could be something serious..the guy is asking 1500 but I got him down to 1300 over txt. He has stripped most the Interior but still has it. Some aftermarket parts koyo rad, hoses, etc. Worth the risk or pass? What else would make two cylinders misfire? I was competent enough to build engine in my 350z and boost it etc. But I'm not familiar with a z32 and am not in the mood to pull this motor for a rebuild if need be. The kid says it's strictly electrical but doesnt seem to know what he is doing. If the motor is making any obvious knocking, I'd safely agree it's electrical and take a chance.

I would buy, specially if he trows in the other motor. Because even if the motor is no good, you could swap it for the old motor or sell both of them and buy a good engine for it. You could even part it out and get your money plus some more.

Buy it. Rewire the Injector harness. Drive it. Those harnesses are super thin, and they corrode and break ALL the time. I'd bet $20 that's your misfire.
