Title: Making the most of the 2.3
Post by: atk1 on February 12, 2010, 05:11:08 AM

Hey guys, any suggestions on making the most out of the original motor apart from getting rid of it? I like to cruise in my van so horse powers no biggy. Cruisin nicely at 100km would better than 80-90km tho. I have the original auto & diff aswell. She leaks abit of oil on the driveway after shes warm. I heard they all do. Anyone know the best way to stop the leak? How bout economy? I like how the motor doesnt take up much space in the front. Goodtimes, cheers all

I use BP Corse Plus in mine It seems to like all dinasore engines Its a bit thicker & stops the leaks too Cheers Reid

Unfortunately the 2.3 had big problems with the cam box and they always leak. You might be able to do a bit of work to seal it up but it is usually only temporary.
