It's good to see another high mileage evo still going. I am at 185K and still going strong with minimal issues so far. However, I do have one that just popped up. Have you had any issues with fuel leakage during fill ups? I have just discovered that my fuel filler tube is damn near rusted away. I spill a lot of fuel under the car when I fill up. I am now looking to get that fixed asap. Other than that, it's still rolling strong.

I was just thinking, by the time my car racks up your kind of miles, suspension parts will probably be scarce.

Actually, I have all the stuff, thanks to a member here, to redo the shock and spring assemblies. But that is not everything.

I remember a GM car I bought new years ago and racked up the miles until it was time for a rebuild. One of the things I needed was a new steering wheel. So, I contacted the GM warehouse and found they had exactly one left - in red. The interior of my car was black and tan.

No I haven't on my personal car, but I have seen other evo's with the rusted fuel filler neck. Usually it causes the EVAP code to come on.
