It's been so good when it decides to be bad, we'll miss 
the signs till its too late!

My Mitsubishi was like that, I bought it brand new
in 1992 figuring to throw it away in 4 years with 
100,000 miles on it. I immediately changed the oil 
at 500 miles to 20W50 conventional oil and ran it 
like that until April 2005 with 270,000 miles on it. 
Every so often I would consider trading it, but it ran 
so well and was in good enough shape that I just kept 
driving it. 'Sides I could not at the time find a 5 pass. 
Van, everyone wanted me to buy all the seats and 
store what I did not need in the garage. What I did 
not need was a 7+passenger van so I kept the 
Mistu. aka Eagle Summit wagon. 
When the A/C crapped out just after it blew a head 
gasket at 270,000 miles I fixed the head gasket 
and sold it. 
I sure miss it. The only thing it needed most of the time
was a key and a cam shaft drive cog belt every 70,000.
John.
