truck is sold.

for the record, the customer did the legwork and research on whom to source the motor from. we installed it and the truck has served him without issue over the past 4 years.

to the poster below, no we swapped out the oil for 15w40 in the winter months.

you land rover guys are cut from a different cloth, i salute you all.

 

" We replaced the motor with a unit built by Cannibal V8. I'm sure you guys are familiar with their work. It's been running like a champ ever since we did swapped it. He was mainly using it to commute to and from the train station."


Yes, we are all familiar with the fine "work" that Cannibal V8 does !!!
I'm shocked that your friend made it to the train station on time with that engine. Cannibal V8 is a total JOKE!
Good Luck selling this rig, I think you're going to need it.

 

Did this truck run 20w50 year round in New York?

 

Very familiar. The following link is a sticky in the D2 section of the forum.

$8k is insane. You're sitting on a $3500 truck there, max. Especially somewhere like NY where there are a million of these things.
