ok so what would be some lower end mods that i could do my self? i have a 84 ranger with a 85 2.8 in it. I've had some odd problems with them but i never see to find them for sure, they just go away. The carb i have needs a rebuild, bad... and i know thats only like 30 bucks to get it but how much would a aftermarket entry level carb be worth, used... nothing new cause i know them are like 300... or so...
now aside from the mods i have another question with the valve seats, i was reading on here that the vavle seats are known for going out on these and you can re place them with out removing the heads... but im not sure if mine will hold compression long enough, or even if its worth it... any one know how much the valve seats cost? if i replace them is it worth just going through the whole thing and replacing valves, guides, springs all that stuff?
