1991 Geo Tracker 4X4 review from North America
"Good performance, but parts are hard to come by"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Overall engine performance has been good, engine seals went bad around 133,354 miles but were an easy repair.
Some parts are very hard to come by - computer, air duct hose.
I found that during cold weather, if not warmed up for around 10 minutes, the transmission may not want to go causing wasting of gas, but during the summer, fuel mileage was around 160 miles to a full tank of fuel.
General comments?
The best oil to use in the changes is Valvoline, it's the best amount to use and lasts the longest.
Keeping general service done will keep your Geo running at top shape for many years, but attempt to keep it washed as much as possible due to road salt and dirt eating away at the paint.
Tires are also good to keep into condition, the best bet would be Goodyear all season tires, they last the longest and wear down the best, should last at least a year and 1/2 if well maintained.
A full tank of fuel will last around to 140 miles or more, depending on how often you drive the vehicle.
