1987 Mazda B2200 SE review from North America
"A great truck for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought this truck for $200. When I bought this truck, the previous owner told me that it lacked power and that it smoked, (white smoke), really bad. I took it a mechanic, he changed the spark plugs and changed the oil. He told me that the little 4 cylinder had 6 quarts of oil in it.
He then took it on a test drive. When he got back, he told that he got up to 70 mph. When I took to him, it was only running 25-30 mph. White smokes still comes out of tailpipe. Has a bench seat, with driver side riped. Can any body tell me what could be wrong, before I spend a lot of money.
General comments?
Still has a factory radio with equalizer.
I am going to use this truck for a low rider.
Not bad for the price.
Very dependable truck.
