Got questions for you fine TRS folks
I got a 1988 Ranger 4x4 with a 2.9l v6 I have lifter ticking but the issue is when I drive it never gets into the red on temp. When I get home shut it off a few minuts later it starts bubbling inside the reservoir tank and gains coolaint. I fire it back up and watch the tank go back down. I also feel bubbling in the upper radiator hose. It don't smoke out the exhaust the temp here in the mountains is in the 90's
Other question if I have to have the engine rebuilt at a an auto repair what is the cost pulling and re-installing? has anyone gone through this before?
