I know someone in Canada that's selling one probably cheapish. Might need a body and some electronics work. But if you're looking for a small 4X4 with the fuel economy of a large 4x4 that's the unit to get ! |

| Civilians | After reading your post I would actually recommend moving your desired year up to 93-94 Same body style and most of the problems were cured by then. -- Steve "blazerchic" <rockynabby@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:16991e9dee6d22d19d1d293c0dd9ab3d@localhost.ta lkaboutautos.com... > yeah but im in pa. and the truck im drivin right now has really bad tires. > they hydroplain in rain! i wouldnt make it there! > -----------== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Uncensored Usenet News ==---------- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----= Over 100,000 Newsgroups - Unlimited Fast Downloads - 19 Servers =----- |

| Civilians | The 93-94s had the 4.3 with multiport in them. It has two main faults. The EGR valve likes to get stuck open when chunks of carbon get in it. (not hard to buy a gasket that has a screen on it to stop this problem) and second they have the central fuel injection that like to leak when they get old. That is about a 300.00 part but once replaced they usually go another 100K. Define Cheap? I bought one for my wife 10 years ago for about 6000.00 that was in great shape. Currently they run about 2500 for one in good shape. -- Steve "blazerchic" <rockynabby@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:c7bd6e0aceef737db96103b2eb9073ef@localhost.ta lkaboutautos.com... > what kind of problems does that year have? can you find them cheap? > > -----------== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Uncensored Usenet News ==---------- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----= Over 100,000 Newsgroups - Unlimited Fast Downloads - 19 Servers =----- |

| Civilians | well i just found one even cheaper then that. but when i test drove it everything seemed fine except the brakes have air in them and there is a leak in the trani line. but everything underneath looks pretty solid only some body rust oh yeah i didnt get to see under the hood because the hood release cable is broken and the emergency brake cable is froze how much do you think a hood release and emergency cable system would cost? now this will probably sound stupid but this central fuel injection(better with carbs)i think that fuel injection means there is allways fuel in the carb right???? b/c i know (from stupid experience)that by pumping the gas before starting it you will flood it so im quessing that is were this 300 dollar part comes in?? stupid question? thanks again. |
