Hey All,
My 91 LX 4cyl engine is on its last legs. I am tired of putting money into the engine but the body and top are in great shape so getting rid of the whole car does not seem like an option. I was thinking of swapping out the factory engine to the old Ford Ranger diesel. From research it looks like it should fit. I am not a transmission guy so that is the only thing I still need to research in detail.
Has anyone tried to do this with success or looked into it?
I am only getting around 20 mpg now and figured with the diesel (even a refurb) I should get upwards of 27-28.
Thanks, Pete
