If it does have the crap starter that is going to turn it slower accompanied by a low battery and plugs in wrong order that is going to give you a horrible comp test in regards to the invoice..
Sadly Cheebs auto's are notorious for popping motors in 8's. Normally coils are bad, motor floods, clogs cat, then too much back pressure pops motor. Hence why you see so many on craigslist for cheap.

But like said earlier, new plugs, new coil, new battery, and uprated starter fix most issues with 8's.
