1988 2.3 distributor to 2.3 distributorless
Hello everybody. I'm looking for advices on how to repair or swap an engine 2.3 with distributor on a 1988 ford ranger. It looks like the piston wrist came off and cracked the piston wall. I've been looking around at the junk yards and I can't find the same engine but most of them have 2.3 distributorless 8 spark plugs. I'm wondering if some of you guys have done this swap before. I would like the same 2.3 engine due to GPM and my low budget, but I don't know if this engine will fit or what will I need in order to make this work. I would appreciate any advice on how to fix my ranger.
