At 430,000 with dead cylinder: Rebuild or replace with a used motor (or a remanufactured one?) 850 1996

Klaus,

Thanks. Yes, 4 cylinders do move the 850. My daughter drove it 440 miles back from Williamsburg to CT. My mechanic said the 850 should be able to handle the drive, if she didn't push the car to hard. She didn't. But my mechanic also said, I can't continue to drive the car long term on 4 cylinders. I have to make a decision going forth.

Hugh
