Yeah the 3.3L has a few common problems, but nothing that can't be fixed. Very hardy little motors. There's a story on allpar about some engineers getting excited to have a new modern engine (the 3.3), and then being disheartened when they found it had pushrods. lol It's probably one of its strengths, though. No timing belt, less parts, more reliable.
