Picked up another one...I might have a problem!
Geeze guys, this makes 5! It is a good thing I have a large lot! I couldn't pass up this deal, I needed a bed for my crew cab, the 94 needs a working e40d, and I know someone who is looking for a motor, so I knew I could recoup my money on parts alone. Turns out, this thing is pretty clean, and complete with a clean title. I got it for 1200 bucks and when I got there I saw it was in great shape, the body is very clean, there is a goose neck hitch in the bed, the tires are decent and e-rated, will make a good summer/towing set for the crew, and it has an ATS 093 on it to boot! He said it ran, but he couldn't get it started, After changing out the starter, and charging the batteries, I got it started with a couple shots of ether! It ran pretty smooth, but smoked something fierce, and when I filled the radiator, a ton of oil floated to the top! Ouch. Well I am hoping it is the oil cooler, I will start by draining the oil/water out f the pan tomorrow, and then do a compression test. If it turns out to be gaskets or cavitation, I'll use it for a parts motor for the 94 turbo block out of my crew cab. It still will be a good deal.
