Gas and diesel is way to expencive.
About 16 nok ($1.91) for a litre gas and 14.50 ($1.73) nok for a litre diesel.

1 gallon = 3.78 litre

I would like to someday have a 91-96 F150 or F250. Not a huge fan of any years past that. There is a mint condition teal regular cab F150 4x4 for sale in my town right now.

I instantly fell in love with this truck

 

[RangerX]

Yeah, I loved the '90 I used to have, even though I wasn't 4x4!

So what your plan for this truck?

Seems like F250 parts are easier to find there than Eplorer or Mazda parts!

[madbutcher]

Struggele with the speedometer.. don‘t know if its the wire or a gear..

But i have air suspention

 

[madbutcher]

Got my new trans filter.. so tomorrow i drop the pan and change the atf.

[madbutcher]

Nothing wrong with the speedometer cable.. then it must be the sensor/gear

 

[madbutcher]

Hope to get the speedometer to run like new now

 

[madbutcher]

[madbutcher]
