as my sig says i have a 1984 ford ranger with a 2.2L perkins non-turbo. this was my high school truck and my first rig. the fuel pump went out on it so i bought my PSD and had to park it. it has sintimental meaning to me so i dont want it to sit and rot away. does anyone know anything about these trucks or where i can find parts for them????

 

I have a 84 XLT

 

is it a Diesel?

 

2.2 Mazda built motor. Mazda first used them in the B2200 in 82 to, I believe in 84.

 

ive only seen 2 in person and one on craigslist other then mine. all four that ive seen have been regular cab long box, 2WD and manual tranny, is yours like this?

 

i'm sure there has to be parts for them somewhere, or at least someone that could rebuild them

 

Well Caterpillar owns Perkins Diesel . . .

I'm not sure what kinda fuel pump is on there but any other engine parts you should be able to get at a Cat Dealership

 

Yes it is. I don't think that a 4x4 was offered till 85 when they went to the Mitisubushi turbo model. My neighbor bought one new in 83 and still drives it. It is terribly rusty and I kid him that I sneak down there at night and pour salt water on it. Mine has very little rust on it, the worst is around the bed wheel wells, which I have patch panels for.

 

I have a perkins in my JCB and you can buy parts for the engine there but you will pay a lot for them. Take the fuel pump to diesel pump repair place (shop around first) AND HAVE IT SERVICED. i LET A case fUEL PUMP GET FULL OF WATER AND IT COST ME $600.00 TO BE REBUILT.

 

thanks a lot guys, i had no idea who owned Perkins. i have a Cat dealer about 20 minutes from my house ill swing in there. Doda, i had a diesel mechanic get a quote for me to rebuild the fuel pump, it was $550-600 to rebuild the shaft that is cracked, or $900-1000 to rebuild they entire pump! lvista, is your cab an extended or just a custom?
