  6. 2.9L to diesel 2.3 conversion ?

    Currently my truck has a very tired 2.9L in it. I've came across an 82, regular cab 2wd Diesel ranger. What would be involved for swapping this motor in for my 2.9 ? Does the transmission/transfer case bolt up ? Is this a bad motor ? Thanks
  7. High idle help

    My trucks idle seems to be stuck around 2500 - 3000 rpm. REally annoying. It started happening after i got a TPS from the wrecker (My truck wouldnt go below 1500 before). I threw the new tps on, it stayed around 1500 rpm and i just drove it and didnt care. Recently, it wont go below 2500 rpm...
