i have been offered a ford force 4000, saftey frame with roof, no headlights or grill, good tyres.
only fault is it has been running a log spliter at low revs and there is a thick oil coming out of top of manifold where exhaust slides on.
when running there is no blue smoke and no knocking or rattling.
guy wants £1000, is this about right and is engine knackered
help with 4000

Hi Super 6
That would be about $2000 in US dollars, which would be a good price here. The slobbering out of the exhaust will probably clear up if you work it hard, unless the engine was worn out before it was used on the wood splitter. Can you unhook it from the splitter and work it? Just driving it on the road in high gear would be a good work out for it.
