engine looks kinda naked there.
yeah, getting rid of the stock garbage frees up a lot of room. plus that is an "in progress" pic. at that time, i didn't have some stuff done yet (fuel line, choke cable, etc....)
uh.... steam cleaner?? Just kidding. This is the setup I am looking for my 85 Ranger 4x4. I can't wait to start my weekend project. My real questions are- Does the Duraspark conversion page give accurate details on changing the ignition?? And mainly- do you notice any improvement in the performance? I really want to get a bit more out of my ranger.
if i cleaned the motor, it would be harder to tell which parts are new and which still need to be replaced, haha. mines an 84, so i don't know if yours will be different. mine was just splicing a few wires (didn't use stock plugs), pretty easy stuff. as far as performance (and reliability, and better gas mileage), it was worth every penny.
and i don't have a cat for now (yes, thats illegal), but would like to get one someday after i get all the other problems sorted out. and i don't know about the round thing. engine has been running good for a few years like this, so i'll just leave it alone for now
