Hello,

I was looking at a GD350 turbo, engine n 603 972 12 from 1992 whit 200.000Km.
I have heard that this engine is quit bad and that it makes big problems (€€€). Can same one give me a 1 and impression of this engine? Is it really so bad that and I shouldn’t consider buying it?
Thanks in advance for the help.

It depends on the engine’s history – such as is it a new or upgraded engine. Some of the older 3.5 L engines were fitted with stronger con rods; by 92 the engines were supposed to come with the new rods. Check to see if it’s the original engine.
