1988 Mazda B2200 Regular Cap review from North America

"It's a good learners vehicle, or reliable transportation"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The most notable thing that has gone bad with the truck is the carburetor. It drowns itself in gas causing it to stall and not deliver adequate fuel and constantly needs to be tuned. Secondly are the engine sensors and the EGR sensor. Those have gone bad a few times, which turned out to be pricy at the the dealer. The clutch has been replaced twice, and the fuel gauge does not work. The odometer cable broke once, and was replaced. The tail gate handle broke once. The reason I know all this, is because my father was the previous original owner. The muffler broke twice, do to backfires. Lastly, the alternator broke 3 days ago.

General comments?

I am a teenager, and have been treating it bad. When I first got it, I thought it was pretty beefy. It peeled out very nice, and felt like it had lots of power. Then a few months kept passing by and I noticed that the old truck was losing it. I feel that it could have given lesser problems if I continued to treat it nice like my father did. It's a reliable truck, other than the fact that the alternator broke and I can't start my vehicle anymore.
