I just dropped a 2.2 in place of this 2.5. I took the motor in trade for the labor, so as much as I'd like to give someone a deal, I'd like to get paid for the work done. So. Here's the deal. obviously 1996 motor, 157k miles, headgaskets never replaced. It ran when I pulled it 3 days ago, but not great. Stumbled and hesitated a bit, although I doubt the spark plugs have been replaced since I did them 3 years ago...so that could just be those. It leaks oil externally from a few places (mostly valve covers). It gets a little oil in the coolant, but NOT the other way around (still has oil in it, see for yourself). It also burns coolant. It has not been overheated. I needed to keep the crank/cam angle sensors, engine wiring harness, purge solenoid and throttle body. Everything else will be included (intake manifold is removed so I could pull the engine harness). I'd like to see $400 obo
Oh yea, Engine is out at Izzy's shop just outside Duluth. But, I'll be coming down to Medicine lake with a fairly empty truck on August 16/17
I need a short block. Willing to separate the heads? I'm sure you'll have no problem selling the heads. $200 for the block if interested. PM or text me if you still have my number or just get it from izzy. I'll shoot you a text in the morning otherwise.
both true. You're right, you shouldn't have any trouble reselling the heads. I'd really rather sell it whole. But if it comes to it, I may part it out.
I just sent you a text using the number you put in Facebook. I'll take the engine whole but need about a week to procure funds.
