1989 Geo Metro LSi from North America - Comments

"A surprisingly tough little powerplant"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Water pump started leaking when I was trying to blow the motor (it just won't die) Replaced timing belt.

Body is pretty much gone.

General comments?

I got this car in exchange for a tuneup. I really had no intention of keeping it for too long, just having some fun with it and junking it, This car refuses to die, so I figured I would keep it because it runs so good and gets killer gas mileage. I never figured a 3 cylinder could take so much abuse (numerous attempts to blow it up) This car is ultra reliable.

My father rebuilds engines. One time a guy brought up a Geo Metro cylinder head that had two burned exhaust valves, rendering two of the three cylinders useless. That leaves about 20 cubic inches of usable power. It was running before he decided to fix it! I just thought that was a little comical.

I have an 89 Geo Lsi - owned it since it was new. This car is amazing and has NEVER let me down. I use it as a second car now and will never sell or trade it in...EVER!
