First off this is my first forum i have ever joined period. i have tried to find a answer and cant. be gentle on me! hahaha
i have a 2001 mazda B300 2wd 5speed manual. ( mazda is same as ranger except body styles i have read ). i blew the motor up because of low oil level ( made me so sad! ). now i have to buy a used motor ( i live in hawaii and will have to get one sent to me ). my question, is a 2001 3.0 the only motor that will work with my ECU and all other items of that sort? or is there any other year motors that will work with my ECU? i dont even know the names all all the computer things that make a motor work, is it just a ECU? i heard of different wiring harnesses also? im a bit lost here and just need a new motor in this truck and am hoping instead of having to find the same exact year motor to match up with all my other components that there may be a few other years i can choose from to have a few more options when buying a used motor. SUPER THANKS IN ADVANCE for helping me out!
