Too much. Did it start & run?

I've got a 1994 B3000 with the same 3.0 liter engine. Ask the seller if he has replaced the water pump and the gasket on the timing chain cover. Also, ask him if the valve cover gaskets have been replaced. All of those gaskets start leaking coolant and oil when they get old. I just finished installing new brake calipers, rotors, wheel bearings, rear brake drums, rear brake cylinders, pads, shoes, and front brake lines on my truck.

If the car is garbage, why do you want to purchase it? That's awfully low mileage for a '94 but he's had to put in a lot of work. Something does not make sense here.

Hi so this being a car of some 23 years old spare parts are not so easy to come by. So may be impossible for certain parts. I think you meant the car was GARAGED not
garbage.

Those vehicles had transmission problems all the time. Check the ATF color and s, ell the dipstick to see if it smalls burnt. Then drive the car and make sure it shifts firm and doesn't slip.

  • What should be done to a car that s been sitting for a long time? My parents bought me and my brother a 2001 ford mustang about a month ago. It has 88,000 miles on it and the previous owner (not the original owner) had been letting it sit for about 6 months I think he said. The car obviously hasn't been driven that much. I know I should obviously change the oil and all filters. I don't know too much about cars but am learning and was just wondering from any mechanics out there what all I should do to it.
