I bought this truck in August 2004 for a daily driver since
the A/C works. But when I got it, it needed a bit of work. It was
sitting for a few months. It was sold in December 2006 to make room
for the Lightning.
5 speed transmission
4 wheel drive
The work I did to it:
New battery and cables
New primary wire
All new gaskets (including head gasket)
New timing chain, gears, tensioner
Rebuilt cylinder head (new valves/seals)
New cam
New head bolts
New fuel and oil filters
New spark plugs
New distributor cap and rotor
New belts
New catalytic convertor
Fixed the driver's side door mechanism
Fixed the dash clock
Waxed the oxidation out of the paint
Replaced a tire
New harmonic balancer
The story of my experience with the 22R-E engine is here.
Update 09/04/2004:
After installing a new harmonic balancer to get rid of a huge oil leak, I took it through emissions.
Loaded HC: 10/220 (reading/limit)
Loaded CO: 0%/1.20
Idle HC: 9/220
Idle CO: 0%/1.20
I guess the two weeks paid off. ;)
