Yup, learned my lesson on this one for sure. I am a small business owner and while I would love to do a rebuild myself just for the experience, I couldn't afford to take the time to do it with my one running vehicle out of commission.
There was a warranty with the motor. 1 year unlimited...
Hey guys, I am having my first experience with some warranty issues relating to a remanned short block 22re I got for my 86 recently.
So I find a motor from a local company (who shall remained unnamed for now) for about $1000. Seemed like a good deal and the guy seemed trustworthy enough over...
UPDATE:
Just wanted to do one last update on this thread to confirm that my problem definitely HAS been solved. Truck has ran beautiful for a good 3-400 miles already since the fix. It actually picked up 3-4 MPG as well! I am guessing its been running rich for a while and I just didn't notice...
UPDATE!
May have solved the problem. Following KidV's advice, I went to check the Continuity on the wiring harness going to the AFM. When I popped the plug off my flashlight hit it in such a way that something caught my eye.
I could see the reflection off all the contacts EXCEPT one! Well, I...
I did Ohm test the AFM. I also did a general check for sticking vane ect... and it all seemed to pass according to the "easy tricks" article I found. I will find the link to it.
When you say through the harness, what do you mean exactly? I unplugged the whole thing and took the AFM inside, so I...
Well good news and bad news. I found someone mentioning that that code might just be because of an unplugged AFM. I did actually try and start it up after testing the AFm without the wiring harness plugged in by accident. So last night i reset the computer and took the truck for a drive.
No...
87 22re - Problem Deciphering Diagnostic Code - (Flooding) *Solved
EDIT: Problem solved. See last few posts.
Hey guys, I am working through a flooding issue in my 87 22RE and I am having trouble decifering a Code thats being thrown by my motor. It has a swapped motor in it from the PO and I am...
There is red too like AJ said above^
I would totally be cool with straight black if you had too! That thing looks awesome. How stable do you think it will be with a large load? Like a large American Mcdonalds coke??? :)
My biggest thing was that the PO still had stock size tires on the ten inch mags. So they ended up looking ridiculous because they were so stretched. All I had to do was get a #stancenation sticker on the thing and I could roll with the honda crowd! :biggrin1:
Ditched the 10 inch slot mags and stretched tires look. Went back to the stock wheels for now. Going to bump up the size a bit eventually, but for now just trying to get it all mechanically sound.

I like it! Im using a cheap walmart cup holder that jams between your seat and the center console, but instead I shoved mine into the map holder in my door. It works fine but I occasionally smack my knee into it which gets irritating. Ill definitely be in for one when you get the final design up!
New (to me) that I picked up just the other night. Either replacing the stretched tires on the slot mags, or getting rid of the whole set up all together and going with a new wheel tire combo. Haven't decided yet.
