I recently got myself an 86 Ranger Diesel and am wanting to find out what this motor is capable of and what sort of things I should inspect/replace. This is Ranger #14, but never had one with the 2.3 Turbo Mitsubishi engine so I'm in the dark. I know these are interference engines, so I'll be looking closely at the timing belt. Any other problem areas? What kind of MPGs are these capable of and how is the power? How much boost do they run stock? I see they are rated for 86HP/134TQ. The truck is optionless other than being equipped with A/C and has a 4 piece rear sliding window. Were power steering and power brakes an option? It has both.
