Only you can answer the question. Is it worth the cost of repairs vs the value of the car and if you cannot get the repairs done, what do you do, sell for scrap, buy new/used car, buy used engine, get current engine repaired.

Get the information you need to make an informed descision, cost of repairs vs value of car and cost of getting new used car.
