Hello, I am a long time lurker. I have been on the forums for a while now gathering info (hardly gotten any and usually end up confused or with info I dont need) but just now decided I would make an account.
I live in Tagish Canada and I own a Forrest green 1987 dodge d 50 'sport'. I dont know much about these trucks as most people that I know that live in the yukon have full size V8 trucks with big tires and a lift kit.
I do know regular maintenance. I have had the valve covers off checking it out and it's a V6 with DOHC and twin turbos, but that's it as far as I know. It has a 5 speed and 4x4, and it has bucket seats and a center console if those are options, I have seen some with a bench.
I have read up a little bit on it but honestly it's really boring. I was looking for some help on this truck. What issues does it have, what do I need to look out for, what gas mileage should I get, will it be good in snow and ice and mud, etc.
I know it's a V6 because it has 6 plugs 3 on each side, it has 2 turbos because there are literally 2 turbos, and it's a DOHC because it has 4 cams, 2 in each head. And it has a 5 speed because I have shifted it myself, and it's a sport because it has the tach and console and bucket seats and 'sport' emblems.
I am working on getting it back running, it has a few issues and doesnt run right, I know the problem I just need some time. A few vacuum hoses and wires are missing/wrong way and some sensors are wack, but I'll get it with some time.
Thanks! -Raymond
