Hi there,
I own Proton Saga year 1992 1.5 magma engine (4G15, I think) and its engine life gonna finish soon because too many smoke come out already. So I think instead of changing to new engine (low budget) what can I do to rebuild this engine back to normal or to become a fighter. So I need your advice here with budget 1K, please list down what I should buy to upgrade my machine, or do you have any idea where to get a cheap engine. Remember! the budget is no more than RM1000 and maybe still using the same engine (rebuild)... Thanks

ya.... either rebuild the current engine or get another engine !!! only that with 1k !! yr car is quite old so even after changing/rebuliding the engine u may still need to repair/replace other parts. i would prefer rebuilding coz then u can change the internals, rebore & do some things to make yr engine a bit more powerful .

I suggest u save up your money to transplant better engines.

No worth to maintain ur current engine.

save the cash really...at least get 2k la...u nvr know when that extra 1k might come in handy. it's like that one la sometimes...set a side at least 1k for misc items.

i'm sure u've got enough will power to save up another 1k correct?
