Hello All, I have seen a few posts on here talking about plumbing fuel lines for carburetors in V8 swaps. Most recommend using a return style fuel regulator, how necessary is this return line. What is its purpose? I already have a MR. GASKET 9710 regulator with no return, is this workable. Is...

Hi all, Been having this issue for a few months now and I feel its getting worse and its annoying as well. I have a 2002 ford explorer sport trac with the 4.0 with 187000 miles. The issue I'm having is that after I drive my truck even for short periods at a time, park it, shut it off and go do...

My 1996 4.0L OHV has a slight fuel smell after adding gas. I can smell the gas from the cabin with the windows closed. I currently do not have a CEL on. What are some common areas to check for a fuel leak. My fuel lid is tightened down good (maybe its old and not working?) How dangerous is the...

i have found weird things on this question looking for a straight answer.

So, 1994 Ford ranger Splash 4.0 4wd auto Got it pretty good price, kid loved it, big tires, lots of cosmetic stuff. Kids had it before us took out all the interior plastics pretty much including dome light, headliner, a pillar trim, visors, etc., put all kinds of crazy lights under it, in the...

My truck has a brand new in tank sending unit but my fuel guage doesn’t really work…some times I’ll start it up and BOOM it jumps right up but after about 3 minutes it has slowly made its way back down to empty. Not times it just downst move. I’ve checked connections and fuses but I am coming up...

Ok all have been looking at the forum now for a while and mileages seen all over. Ranges look like 11 to 12 towing to 17 to 18 around town. Well I just got excited the other day after my last fill-up checked the mileage numbers to compare with the truck computer which has all ways been within 1...

Hi all, I just inherited a 2002 Ranger step side with the 4.0 SOHC, about 179k miles, well taken care of. The previous owner was having an intermittent issue that he was trying to fix, but ultimately decided to give up and get a new vehicle, so he ended up giving it to me for free. I am trying...

I’m going from a carb’d 2.8 to the 4.0 OHV out of a 94 Ranger. I know that I should swap gas tanks for one with a fuel pump, but I’m wondering if I can just go with an in-line pump and keep my original tank. Found one on jegs 43psi so that’s right in the ballpark, but do I have to get a pressure...

Hello! I'm new and looking for help getting the fuel rails off my ranger. I got the intake manifold off (see pictures). There are 4 complex hollow pipe like screews(see picture) next to the 8mm bolts for the fuel rails. I can't remove the pipe screws. I have loosened 3 of themcompltely and they...

hey guys, I've been trying to fix a bad fuel sending unit on my 1984 2.0L 2wd. Got a 1986 in-tank pump assembly and I believe a 1983 and they are both different from my old one and both don't fit. I read somewhere that even if I could get it to fit physically the sending unit runs on a different...

Hey guys I've been searching but can't really find anything short of welding. It's an 86 2.9 ranger with a 5.0 efi SD out of an 87 Lincoln Town car. My problem is the fuel lines. Anyone know the best/cheapest way to adapt them? Thanks yall.

So I just bought and '87 ranger with the 2.9 in it. I couldn't get it to start and have narrowed it down to being a fuel issue. I pulled the tank figuring I was just replacing the fuel pump since I couldn't hear it running. However, the tank is pretty rusted so I'm now planning on replacing it...
