Bad news yall.......the engine I worked so hard to get into the Burb is crap.The oil looked like peanut butter and had a lot of water in it.A friend of mine who has a tow service had a 93 TBI motor listed on CL and I called him and struck a deal.I drained the oil out of the van motor at 8 this morning,saw the state of it and had the other replacement motor out by 11:30am.
This motor was well cared for.the oil looked great and had an oil change documentation from new.The PO of the truck was heart broken when it got totaled.It has 186k on the motor which is a far cry better than the 263k on the van motor!
On another note I got my drive shaft shorted and got it in the Burb so thats another thing off the list
Most of this engine swap is going to be plug n play as they are the same engine.I'm going to do my best to do this as fast as possible while doing a good job.I want my Burb on the road so bad it hurts
