Making the most of the 2.3
« 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

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.
