My dad found a 1993 Shortbed 4x4 5 spd 318 and he wants me to trade my 1985 Shortbed 2wd automatic 318 for it an I want to but the grill is busted and I was wondering If I could put the grille sorrowing that's on mine on it and it will match up right or if it needs fenders I've also got a hood I know I'll also need new headlights and turn signal lights but is that all I'll need
Ok I'm getting rid of my baby Saturday for a new one it's not getting spark he said he drove it around the house a few times and now it won't get spark would you say possibly timing got knocked off or needs a tune up it's got a new crank shaft sensor clutch and throwout bearing
The timing being off won't cause the motor to have any spark , just a spark at the wrong time.
Start at the beginning. When is the last time the cap and rotor were replaced? Does it have spark at the coil?
He said the wires look old so I'm kinda thinking maybe spark plugs are bad could that happen drive it one day and the next it won't start cause spark plugs are bad
