98 will not work in a 97 you can only use a 1996-1997 2.2 motor no other year will fit correctly

i thought that 94-97 had the same motor. what did they change from 95 to 96?
94-95 have no hole in the block for a cam or is it crank sensor so its somehting like odb1 and not odd2 ........ now you can use a 96-97 in a 94-95 truck but you can not use the 94-95 in the 96-97 and 98 is totally differnt

a 94 wont work in a 97 anda 98 wont work in a 97 he needs a 96-97 motor only its a waste to try and make a newer motor work unless your going to put a v6-v8 in it

guys seriously if ur doing a motor swap get a motor wit less than 80k y wind up another swap in a few years. Spend another $200 and u can pickup a lower mileage motor. Your gona spend atlest another 300 in parts when u swap the engines. and while u got ur motor ready to go in replace the timing chain for $60 i regret not doing mine.

i picked my motor up from queens 50k on it no accesories for $500 came to be 550 wit delivery.
