THIS IS FOR 4 CYLINDER 2.3 GASOLINE POWERED ENGINES ONLY!

What order have you higher mileage (100k+) owners broken big things? Things that left you stranded.

Thanks

lets see here every truck is going to have difference stuff brake a Different times depending on the weather, how you drive it if your in salt or not. the biggest i had was my idler pulley bearing froze. I have replaced my idler pulley 3 times and my tensior pulley 3 times I am getting sick of it now.

I had the Oil Pump Fail. It was part of the motor and the whole motor had to be replaced.

Bumping an old thread is always better than starting a new one!

People are told to search and when they bump an old thread they are yelled at. Its kind of confusing on what to do.
