You could keep fixing it but then you WILL be left on the side of the road some day and you will have to have a second vehicle because this one require more and more work and more and more money. If thats your hobby great. I would have dumped it at or before 200k.
That's why I asked if it had been serviced, especially the ATF. I posted a vid where a German econobox made it to 400,000 miles with regular servicing...I intend to keep my truck well past 200k.

True, there is no point throwing good money after bad.
