They got the head off today and the piston is broken. The injector tip is planted firmly in it but it rattled around enough to break the piston which also bent the valves. Head work, bottom end, can't find all the pieces of the piston. Exhaust? Turbo? Looking for a replacement. He has one in a truck behind the shop for $3000. Belongs to a friend of his that was going to sell it anyway. Any better deals in a hour of desperation? I still have the Ranger that I can flop the plate back to. Its just not getting any better. The good new is.... It can't get any worse. I like the truck but don't want to push it around for amusement.
