Possible engine issue - Lapchik - 06-01-2014 04:06 PM

Glad I have a bike or two or six to ride. Might have a small problem with the truck engine.

Hey Rich . . . want to trade now? That clicking sound went away . . .Sounded like a handful of misc hardware in a food blender . . .for a very short time.

Is that the 4.0 or the little one?

My dad might still have the 4.0 that was in my 94, he thought it needed a 302 Smile

It's a 4.0, but the 94 and the 2000 are not direct swap. Ford remanufactured long block comes with a ton of new parts, just need upper intake, exhaust manifolds, water pump, and oil pan from old engine and it costs less than $2300* so I'm just doing that. And I did consider a 4.6/5.0 swap, but you loose 4x4 and there is firewall cutting involved.

Bet that is a screamer with a 302, how many tires per mile does it get?

New crate engine . . .drop and go right? Wrong . . .engine builders smashed the water pump into the front cover and cracked it.
