[QUOTE=laparwah;2969174]Nopes , i changed the 6g72 engine plus manual transmission , it costed me around 160 at that time (including all the hidden charges) , according to best of my information neither 2.8 diesel nor the 3.5 are direct fits . desi mechanics can fit u any engine in the bay , congratulate u on the start up and charge u , while it will be u later on facing the issues .
6g72 gives 8-9 on highway , and 5/6 in urban and lesse
r if u have a heavy foot.
4d56 transmission should ideally work well with the 3000 engine , but i changed the transmission as well .
There is a stark difference between the 4d56 diesel and 6g72 petrol esp in terms of performance , mine a 3 door and the difference was even
more stark .
my first reaction was wowwwwwww , my jeep turned into a pocket rocket and was drifting on every turn
But keep in mind one thing dont rush , research well , mechanics are mostly crooks , i believe u r in peshawar , if that is the case u can test drive my pajero , and later u can make your mind
u can give me a call any time my number is 0333-9251926[/QUOTE]
I agree our desi mechanic can do wonders but later it is the owner who has to suffers because of their carelessness.The milage you told me seems very decent this is what I am getting out of my old 4d56. I will research well before I go ahead with the swap I wanted to the swap my pajero engine this summer. I also started a thread for engine help last year but most people didnt answer my request for help. So that is why I fixed my jeep and postponed the engine swap till next April or may. I am actually from Abbottabad but At the moment i am living in NYC. If Allah wills we will meet next year.I will be intouch with you.
