Need a Spot

My last 3.2 has 280,000kms on it and was still going strong with I think the original timing belt. Lots of power, no ticks or clicks, but...horrible fuel consumption, thirstiest Trooper I ever owned. I got about 350kms per tank in that sucker...

I'm pretty sure it needed a valve and ring job though, as it would smoke on startup quite bad after sitting for a couple days...
