2012 Fit Base is dead! RIP.

After 412,000+ miles my 2012 Fit has blown out the #4 cylinder plug and ignition coil. Some history: A fews years ago it blew out #4 in Loudin, Kentucky. No one would touch it except for a small mom an pop shop that put in a heli coil, new plug and ignition coil and it's been great until now. I had a cyl 4 misfire and before I could address it, it blew the plug.

I am not interested in replacing the head or engine due to age and expenses.

Should I try to sell it as fixer upper or scrap it?

I appreciate the awesome expertise this site gives...

Tom
