how many miles are on your car? Cause you could be burning the oil so i would take your car into a local shop and have them check the engine could be rings or something like that<BR>my car is a 92 Gs and I had the oil problem like u and I was burning it my rings and seals were shot so I swapped a Kl-ze into my car well worth the money

Approximately, how much to do a Kl-ze engine swap. Also, where could I find one?<P>I'm also new the MX-3 as well. Mine has low compression in 2 cylinders and oil in the coolant.<P>Thanks.

search on ebay for KLZE, there is an engine for sale under 40,000 miles... its only at 800$ or so the last time i checked too.. thats seems to be a pretty good deal..<BR>also im wondering, if there is a problem with a kl_ze engine.. where can you get parts for it?? and would a dealer fix a problem with it even tho it is a j-spec?
