This is a joke, right? :-)

Person buys a used car that has well known and documented problem areas, without obtaining a pre-purchase inspection. And then request strangers give money to help with repairs. Sounds like an old weak scam to me...

Good luck with that!

I heard there is this process of blasting nutts over the valves. Walnuts to be exact.
