Now that I have read your whole post rather than just skim over it, It will be needing some engine work soon. Yes 140k is high for a VW motor. I dont really think it will last much longer without problems. They all do leak at one point, mine has a new engine and it leaks 1 or 2 drops a day. As for the stalling, it could be any number of things. Timing, vacume hose leak, AAR or a dozen other reason. I am thinking that 4800 is asking top dollar for it and on the east coast, I would question the rust on the longs and below the battery tray. Good luck.
