I've had quite a few 240s but since my last one, a '93, was totaled, I'm looking for another 240. Although there are still a lot of later 240s out there I know of an '80 242 for sale that supposedly has 33K miles & is in excellent shape. This one I'm really interested in. But since I've had the newer 240s I'm cautious about this one only because it has the older CIS fuel injection system. I'm a DIYer so wouldn't mind getting acquainted with it but am concerened about reliability & parts availability since it would be a daily driver.

Anyone have an opinion on the CIS system in particular and the older 240s in general? Thanks.
