I was hoping to get some help. i know everyone is going to hate me because of my name having a honda car, but it's only temp. in case i actually get this dodge stealth. one of my favorite cars of course is the dodge stealth. i am currently looking at a Twin turbo dodge stealth right now to get and work on as my first project car. It has, i am told a bad fuel injector and fuel was thrown into the oil. it was turned off immediately after this happened and is now sitting outside a shop waiting to be fixed. I saw it next to some cars for sale and tracked down the guy selling it. All the interior is still there, but it's just all apart and needs to be put back together. i was "told" that it ran great before the fuel injector went bad but the guy might just be trying to tell me what i want to hear cause he's a cars salesman lol. they bought it for like 3,200 and want to sell it to me for 2,200. so my question for you all is this, is this a good deal? what are the common issues with the dodge stealth and is it a nice car to work on as a first real project. i don't know if i will keep it when i'm done with it since i do love my prelude and it gets better gas mileage and hope to make some money out of this later on. But, i love the stealth and may just fall in love with this car. There is also a non-turbo one that is pretty beat up, probably doesn't run, but i may be able to get it for like 200/300 bucks (need to hunt the guy down first). should i say forget the 2,200 turbo and try getting the cheap one to work on? or just put the money into the better one and hopefully i can get it running great get it looking great (which only requires a paint job and a new interior) and be able to actually get the money i put into it back because everyone wants the twin turbos? any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

A bad fuel injector will NOT get fuel into the oil.

As far as I know you've got to have major internal problems to get gas into the oil.
