1986 GM 6.2 Diesel engine. complete with starter and pump. has blow by and good oil pressure. around 185,000 mi on it. 150.00
think its worth picking up?

Yes!! That's darn cheap for any 6.2L engine, running or not! I paid $400 for my non-running 6.2L (which was probably too much, but it was all I could find locally at the time), so I think you ought to snatch that motor up. It's always nice to have a spare, if nothing else. I have a spare 6.2L that I have in my shop. I saw it in the paper one day for a good price, and picked it up just to have on hand. In fact, I'm using the spare engine to help fab up all my turbo parts to make sure they fit before installing in the truck.
