1993 ranger 3.0 4x4
My truck does not throw an engine light but runs super rich and only gets about 8mpg. The truck seems to run fine while driving and has about as much power as you could expect from the 3.0, Running a koer test it comes back with codes 137 and 173, bank 1 and 2 rich. I have checked and re checked everything I can think of, I have also replaced a bunch of things.
New o2 sensors, fuel filter, distributor/cap/rotor, wires, spark plugs, coil, thermostat, ECT, IAC, and injectors. Also has new cam, lifters, pushrods and timing chain. Double checked cam timing as well.
I have verified voltages to/from TPS and MAF sensors, checked for voltage drops and continuity across sensors/wires. verified grounds and even added a couple. Injector resistance tests good through pcm connector and you can hear each fire while running. Timing is at 10 btdc with pip unplugged and advances when you plug it back in.
Fuel pressure is at 38 koeo and 32 koer pull the FPR vacuum it jumps to 40. Pressure holds with key off also.
I even tried a remand PCM with no change.
I got the powertrain/emissions bible for 1993 and also the vacuum/wiring manual for the 93 ranger. I have exhausted everything in those manuals with the equipment I have and am at a stand still now. There has to be something i am missing. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
