Ok price if runs good.


I think that's way too much for that engine. It's gonna need a complete rebuild. You would be much better off in the long run getting a crate motor for $4K. By the time you buy that engine and then rebuild it you will be into it $10K. You can plan on about $4K to rebuild the long block and an additional $4K to rebuild all the accessories. Log story short, get a new crate motor from Hyundai.


I agree with Spence. If the engine for $1,800 can be verified as running good, not to bad of a deal. However as others have chimed in, as soon as you touch a diesel for repairs you will be into deep $$$. $4K for a new crate engine diesel is the way to go.
