Looking at buying my landlord's 1993 b2200 (5spd, fuel injected), which he's had sitting outside for a few months. He's spent absolutely no time driving or working on it, so he doesn't know what's wrong with it other then "it doesn't run too great". He wants $400 for it, and with a near-perfect body, I didn't think it was that bad of a deal for my first project vehicle.
Brought a long-time mechanic buddy over to check 'er out, got it to turn over but once it's running the idle is super lumpy, feels like the thing's only running on two cylinders. Once you put your foot into the gas, sounds normal and the vibrations disappear. He says it's the o2 sensor, but I have no clue. I haven't been able to drive it around, so I don't know any more then what I can find out sitting at rest.
Anything I can do to narrow the options down? Where do I even start?
