  +T or engine swap… thinking out loud

  By VWJake

  With diesel prices at $7/gal here it’s no longer reasonable to drive my 14mpg truck. So, out comes my ‘76 265 to reclaim DD status. I guess it’s really only a 265 in title. Brakes, Suspension, AW70, and rear axle (open 3.73) came from an ‘85 245. Engine is a ‘93 B230F that I shaved .040” off the head and added an ipd Vx3 cam and a nuke adj timing gear to. LH2.4 ECU and EZK came from same ‘93. Wiring harness is from a 740 LH2.4 turbo car (whittled down to fit my car). The car has functional... Read more

  Checking in from Eastern Ohio

  By Jericho Low Gap

  Just wanted to pop my head in and introduce myself. I originally joined this form back in 2021 when I purchased a 1988 D100, but I had a few technical difficulties that prevented me from posting. I recently rekindled my interest in Ram trucks...and here I am. The D100 has been gone for a couple of years, but I hope there will be another in the future.

  Issue with 2013 Mazda 2 Neo PCM/Instrument Custer

  By margidraz

  2013 MAZDA 2 NEO This is my first post following a difficult time with multiple repair attempts to resolve a non-start issue since January 2026 by Mazda Service Centre at Liverpool. In January 2026 i was parked in Liverpool and returned to my vehicle and it wouldnt start. I had the car towed to an auto electrician in Wetherill Park to investigate. After a couple hours of diagosis, the auto electrician said the battery voltage was lower than normal but after fiddling with the key it... Read more

  Dropped valve seats

  By Dubz2319

  Okay so I have a 2006 dodge ram 2500 5.7 about 140k miles. The other day I was getting ready to pull into my driveway and I came to a stop, the truck died wouldn’t start so pushed into driveway. Finally got it started and it made a bunch of clattering noises but not quite a rod knock sound. So I started investing it and ended up pulling the plugs and looking in with a borescope. Driver side head ended up having dropped valve seats on cylinders 1,3, and 7. The seats got caught by the valves... Read more

  1989 240 Part ID please?

  By kydave19

  While removing the useless AC line going through the firewall today, after removing the compressor it was no longer hooked up to yesterday, I noticed a similar looking hose going through the firewall. It comes from this "Filter-Dryer..." canister next to the radiator (passenger side). Is this part of the AC system? If so, can I toss the hose and canister? Or is it actually something my old car is using? Thanks as always for helping my learning curve on my "new-to-me" 240!

Just added Tom’s rear disc brakes which I believe are El Dorado calipers? Need to replace the factory manual drum/drum master cylinder with a new manual master cylinder. Appreciate the help.
