I own a 94 Ford F-150 XLT, 4wd...all the goodies. She has the 5litre v8.
302 I believe.The truck has 188000 miles on her. Still runs good but she is tired. The questions is should I trade her in or have the engine rebuilt?? I truly love this truck and looking at the prices of new trucks am leaning toward having the engine rebuilt and staying with old faithful.
Some questions regarding a rebuild:
I am assuming I will notice improved performance but what about improved fuel ecomony?? Can I expect to see a gain in efficieny?
What is a good price bracket for an engine rebuild? How much is too much to pay for this service? what would be a fair price to pay to have it done by a competent person?
What type of warranty is typically included or is that something that is not typically offered?
Need any advice you could proffer.
