Auto really makes no difference in this scenario. The auto doesn't have “slop” and the entire drivetrain still needs to be “loaded” regardless.

Don't let the car go below 2k unless it is in neutral. And in 5th and 6th keep it above 2.5k. Every one of these sounds like a farm tractor at those low revs.

If you own it free and clear and can be without it sell it private party. Some DIY'er will engine swap it or replace the engine. You will probably get a lot more then 500 bucks that way. Opie
