So in what order do big things break on these?

THIS IS FOR 4 CYLINDER 2.3 GASOLINE POWERED ENGINES ONLY!

What order have you higher mileage (100k+) owners broken big things? Things that left you stranded.

Thanks

I had the Oil Pump Fail. It was part of the motor and the whole motor had to be replaced.

Bumping an old thread is always better than starting a new one!

People are told to search and when they bump an old thread they are yelled at. Its kind of confusing on what to do.
