Had to replace the engine, the original one was blown. Clutch went up. Distributer cap replaced, and valve cover gasket.
All in all this truck is a solid truck. I really miss it. It got me everywhere with little problems. It has good styling too, and can be made into a pretty sharp looking pickup.
I have, as a backup vehicle, a 1984 Ford Ranger also. I feel that it is not reliable whatsoever. I am always putting money into mine to keep it running and would never buy another ford ranger ever.
