Same here and not a problem for over 100,000 miles--engine is 2.2 carb though--valve train is as quite as any 2.2 slider I've dealt with bob

The FSM really doesn't say whether to remove it from top or bottom, just "remove engine from car" """"BUT""""" on install it does say lower engine into car, must be from the top:D ? bob
Dang nice of her--do something really special for hers now!!!! bob
Hey Joseph , what you been up to--as far as the car it depends on the buyer--I've come to realize I'm a cheap bugger too--in fact I bought a 88 Turbo New Yorker with 89,000 actual miles--guy still...
just build yourself a Tee [1 1/2--5/8---1 1/2] in the lower radiator hose--works beautiful-been using one for years--bob
Interesting--never seen that before and had plenty of engines apart--never even seen it on turbo diesels and they work off detonation--''Interesting''-- bob
Put an engine heater on it--much easier on all the parts
So that 2.3 Ranger engine might just accidently bolt to the 1.6, 1.9 bellhousing?:eyebrows: Bob
Dang:mad: --well I'll find something---mech1nxh that link is nothing but pure :thumb: gold to the 1.6---1.9 Ford crowd--Thanks all my questions answered---Bob
Hey Thanks--I can't believe it but I happen to have a 2.3 from a wrecked 95 Ranger--Will look into the swap---Thanks to all who have replied---Bob
Welcome--just in time to provide compitition on prices for my re-build this summer:evil: ---Bob
Need to know if a 1.9 Escort cyl head will interchange with a 1.6 Escort--the 1.6 is carb[1984]. the 1.9 is EFI [1990], will use all the carb set-up on the EFI head if possible--need to know before I...
I replaced mine in my charger with one from Rock Auto--cost was under $100 for the turbo model and it was made by the same people who make the original [both made in Canada:thumb: ] Bob
I'll take a charger shirt if you decide on that for 2007:thumb: -Bob
You got it done,:lol: didn't you--Soooooooo its good on you--look at all the help you can give somebody else--maybe me:evil: --bob
I've done 5 or 6 of them--no problem--clean is the trick for me--make sure spindle assembly is spotless--use sandpaper or die grinder to clean inside spindle completely free of rust--light coat of...
Yeah good deal and good luck with the re-build bob
Once you get it off--do some trimming in the motor mount area--also open up the radius of the curve above crankshaft--it'll come off easy :thumb: from then on--or just leave it off like some guys...
Dang good info:thumb: --thanks Chad---bobr19-----
I went thru this with Chris at TU a short time ago--valve reliefs on the pistons are on a different centerline and 8V reliefs are larger diameter--might have interference problems:eyebrows: unless...
Is it a "known:o good" computer or just a pig in the :eyebrows: poke, that will determine offers--bobr19
A big thanks for posting this site--now if my registration only approved???;)
at idle if not producing enough pressure/volume to to open a relief valve how is it almost pegging gauges??????? I once had a hyl. pump that would put out any pressure at any RPM--took apart and pump...
Relief spring set to pressure not RPM--RPM doesn't matter-might be 1 or 10,000-when the spring pressure is reached valve will open--it might be to tight clearences or blocked oil passages but if...
I had a one wire sensor short out against the exhaust--just repaired the wire and no problem--it just showed no voltage to the computer like a faulty sensor would do--if you have a 3 wire or 4 wire...
