Anybody know of anyone who has made the gas to diesel switch in a Ford Ranger P/U?
I have a 4x4 Supercab 5 speed Mitsubitshi trans, behind a 2.9 Ltr gas engine.
Body and interior are perfect, frame has light rust.
I do not care if it remains a 4x4 after the conversion. (anotherwards to get a diesel to work, a total removal of engine, tranny, and transfer case, whatever it takes).
I read where one guy suggested a GM 6.2 ltr might. Would not that be TOO big to fit in the engine compartment, not to mention the weight?
I am not out for performace, big towing power, my goal is mostly fuel economy.
ANY suggestions, ideas, etc would be appreciated.
THANKS!
