Started a project the other day for my buddy, my long time friend returned from Afghanistan and found a job an hour from home. He needed a cheap efficient ride to work, long story short he found a 84 ranger 2wd 4 speed with a Perkins in it for $800.
It had been "rebuilt" by the previous owner, not exactly well done all four injectors were loose 3 copper injector washers were installed one was not. Among many other things including but not limited to..... rtv used everywhere, bolts loose and leaked like a screen door.
Well he got stuck and got it hot, with the lack of injectors installed properly and pop pressures never checked it scored a piston so here we are. I'm rebuilding it for him for nothing to help him out, it is a budget rebuild. Here's some pictures
The original head, come to find out it dropped a valve seat bent push rods destroyed no2 piston.
New used head, parts for these are extremely hard to find.
Here's the short block, he disassembled it while I was working.
We pulled the short block and pulled the pistons. 4 was torched due to injector issues, 2 was the one that ate the valve seat.
I'll get more pictures of it all tomorrow, we sourced two used pistons and I'm pop checking the injectors tomorrow. The internals look great otherwise, just figured it was a halfway cool project and some one would enjoy it.
