I already told you. Run a compression and leakdown test to know the condition of the motor. If all is good replace the waterpump, timing belt, oil pump, distributor cap, rotor, spark plugs, and plug wires. If you do all of that, you will be good to go.

I agree with sohc driver. Just do some tests on the car and then replace the vital stuff regardless.
