Hey guys, I found an FC that I'm pretty interested in buying. The guy says that it has a bad idle and something is wrong with the coolant reservoir, that it fills up very quickly.
Not sure what this problem is and I was wondering if it's worth it to but the car and fix that issue easily or if I should just steer clear of it all together.
Thanks, Matt.

If it is puking coolant into the reservoir then it most likely needs a rebuild.
Now,buying it would be up to you if you intend on rebuilding or replacing the engine.
This of course is not exactly economical if you just want to have the proverbial beater.

I would be fine with rebuilding/replacing the motor after the purchase, but the big killer would be if it would be drivable at least from the persons house back to mine. All else appears to be in good condition from the tires, brakes and all other mechanical things except this coolant stuff, so if driving it home and possibly to and from the shop a few times wouldn't destroy everything or leave me stranded then it's probably gonna be a sale for me

All depends on how far your going. But, on the other side of the coin, it would be your gamble to drive it that way also
