My ne has 205000 miles and runs sweet has just passed the not as well. Only real problems I've had is the icv clogging but a oil catch tank has sorted that and the slight oil and water leak I'm yet to have the time to find.

wish my c20ne was like that it has always struggled to get through the emissions and used to have a new cat each year but I have made a type approved one fit so it will have that on it for the next mot that should sort her out

if you can't get an engine try changing to a multipoint injection manifold from a ne or seh but you will need the ecu and loom to go with it then you can keep the current engine but boost it's power by freeing up the fueling
