I have a 2001 MS that smokes and can't pass smog (155K miles). A local repair shop ran diagnostics and determined the problem was internal (valve guides or rings). I can't afford their repair cost. Are there any mechanics on this site that are interested in doing the work or have good references?
I live in Long Beach, CA.
Thanks,
Rob

I am in Irvine, I have gone to the Mitsubishi dealership in Costa Mesa, they are extremely good and pretty cheap for being a dealership. I also go to a place called Top Gear Automotive in Lake Forest, they are good and will negotiate in price. I told them the dealership was going to do my engine work for 350 (really they quoted me 600 in labor) if I bought the parts. So he said he would do it for 300.
