Hello,
I have a question about swapping an engine in a bobcat skidsteer. I do not know anything about mitsubishi engines so please bear with me if I sound ignorant. I searched quite a bit here and other places and have not found an answer to this question.
A friend of mine has a 93 or there about bobcat with a 4g32 in it. It is worn out it was overheated really bad there is coolant leaking into the #4 cyl. and the compression is #1(115), #2(90), #3(50), #4(50). so it is a rebuild or an engine change. I found a 94 4g63, and a 1993 4g37(which I may not be able to get it has been spoken for and I am waiting to see if the guy buys it) presuming he does not can I use either one of these engines in the place of the 4g32 or is there another engine that I can use?
Is there some guidelines that I can follow on finding the right engine to replace the 4g32
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
Ben

 

I have a 92 Diamante SOHC. I do not have a owners manual for my car. I think that it requires a special trans fuild. What type is it and where can I local it? Also, I thought that in this car the fuild had to be checked when the car was Not Running ? Is this correct. Thanks for any help !

I think a rebuild would be in order if the parts are still good on the engine (head, block, crank). Changing the motor to a different type might need different mounts, hose hookups, ect. Just my .02 worth.

Does anyone know any more about this?

 

any engine will fit in anything if you have the skill, time, and money.
Personally, id just get a new head, check the block is flat, hone the cyls to round and drive on.

There isnt much hard about the 4g series, so any other would be a fairly easy swap.

 

D0 you think the 4g32 block stay the same over the production run?
