Has your engine been reliable ? I drive my 94 celi every day and always starts without fail 163k miles on it doesn't burn oil or smoke. How many miles can this engine run with proper care ?

I've got one with 215k that I didn't change the oil in for 30k miles, but it leaks a quart a week. It still runs great, leaks from every seal, but runs great. I've got a seal kit for it, but haven't gotten to this one, my dd is at 145k, and the one I'm currently working on swapping out has 345k miles on it. The one with 345k blew up, but I believe it was from lack of oil, not from the motor failing but the owner I picked it up from.
