I would rather buy a car that the sales price reflects work that needs to be done than one that the owner says the work has been done. My concern would be, " why is it sitting on a used car lot". If it can pass a ppi and everything else checks out and but valve guides you can have the work done by a shop you know and trust.

If the results of the ppi indicate it needs new guides, I would share that with the used car sales manager and give him a copy of the ppi. He will have to disclose the results of the ppi with anyone who tries to buy it . If he does now disclose the information the dealership would be liable. There are laws though they may differ from state to state, that address deceptive trade or failure to disclose.
