its really a good reliable engine, but there are a few quirks. its really like most cars though, if you do the basics you wont go too far wrong.
oil/filter change. fuel filter. antifreeze checked and or replaced if ness, and keep a good eye on your coolant level, as any loss is important.

if well looked after you may see 200,000 plus of fun times ahead.
get yourself to one of your area meets, you may find they want to chat about the bongo :lol:
