This friend is trying to sell me a car. The car seems ok. However he told me that the only problem was that two spark plugs exploded a while back. is that I should be seriously worried about? I expect some minor repair cost. But is this something that is a big deal and cost me a lot. In one way he is trying to help me out and sell me a car for $300. But I also dont want to be stuck with a car that will cost me $700 to fix.

Hi there,

Can you give me more information on this spark plug problem, spark plugs don't explode so i am unsure as to what you are getting at, anyway i would be very careful about buying a $300 car you pay for what you get.
