1986 Ford Escort 2-Door 2.0L Diesel

Description for Ford Escort 1986

1986 Ford Escort diesel. body clean no rust some small scratches one or two small dents. interior pretty good for its age but a sun damaged dash. Starts hard. might just be weak battery but once running runs ok. Needs heater core replaced I have a brand new one just never installed it so can't drive the car very far before it starts steaming up the windshield. I have a extra motor to go along with it I believe it has a leaky head gasket not sure though. The motors are Mazda RF 4 cylinder diesels. known for getting great mileage the guy I got the car from said it got 42 mpg I didn't drive it enough to find out. I bought the car and the coolant leaked out the heater core and blew the head gasket the first day I bought it. I bought a used engine and installed it and bought the heater core never installed just lost interest in the car. The mileage on the odometer says 26048 I don't know if it has rolled over. Also I'm not sure how many miles are on the motor in the car.
