250,000 miles is the most to expect from a 2.3 gas even with extreme care,i would recommend a differntial cylinder pressure test to determin the condition of the rings,and a oil usage check,how many miles per quart of oil.
Ive got a 2.3 with 312,000 miles on it and still going strong, I had the tranny replaced at 275.000, the trick is to keep that oil clean.
it still has the original chain too ( knock on wood). that 2.3 is a good engine considering its to small for the 190.
