Put a turbo in an 83 2.3liter long wheelbase rangers? I found apower run
turbo out of an 89 fuel injected escort that I think I could rig up. But
what would I need to do it right? What cars are possible donors?

Subject: What priced used?

I have the option to buy a 1987 2.9. It has 180 compression acorss all
six cylinders. The junkyard wants $800 for it. Is this a fair price? The
engine comes complete from intake to exhaust manifold, save the wiring
harness. (But all of the sensors and parts are there)

What do you guys think?

My current 2.9 has that same compression (190 to 180) and 170K miles on
it. I like to keep extras on the shelf, so would this one be a good
candidate? Is the price fair?

How many miles? Seems a bit pricey to me.. just for the engine.

My Explorer is 1991 4x4, but the 4x4 doesn't work. When you push the button
there is an electronic clicking noise from the drivers side rear of the
truck. Anyone have any ideas on what the problem is? BTW, it will go into
4x4 about once out of every 20 times you hit the button.

Sounds like your electronic shifter motor.. looks like a large wiper
motor by your transfercase. They are expensive actually. You can try
tapping it with a rubber hammer.. that works for some people, but it's
only a temporary fix.

Some people have luck with ones from a junkyard.

Good luck and by all means get a second opinion,
Steve

Could be the shift motor on the transfer case has dirty contacts in
it. Check out www.4x4central.com for a procedure on how to clean the motor.

Hi Steve,

They didn't say. They just told me compression. Simply put, "180".

Just for kicks, I tested my compression on my 175K mile 2.9. With a brand new
compression guage, I found 165 to 170 in all six cylinders. I tested 90
minutes after I shut off the engine.

Is there much difference between the two? Would it be noticeable if I swapped
motors?

I was interested in the engine just for a back-up in case something goes
wrong.
