Just curious. I know most have higher mileage engines due to the age of our cars. My celi with 70K appears to have just developed a small leak. I guess most cars will develop oil leaks with age, mileage, or driving habits. Do you think 70K is early for a leak (I don't drive her really hard and my engine is hardly modified)?

im pretty sure that my celi is leaking oil from the head gasket, how much was it for you guys to get that replaced? my engine has 177,000 miles on it and is leaking and burning pretty heavily. i want to get a new engine but im not sure it is worth investing any more money in the car cause the body has taken some pretty noticeable dings/dents over the years and putting a good engine back in there on a pretty beat up body doesnt seem like the best move for the direction of the car. I think i might just start looking for a newer celica or something for about 5/6k to put down on. unless i could get away to replace the head gasket for about 200 and have the car back running with no leaks anymore.
