Hey everybody this is my first ford truck.
Recently 3 months after I purchased my used 1998 ford ranger.120000 miles on it The motor lost oil pressure and locked up. After I pulled the motor and inspected the inside. Wow what a sludge monster. I removed two handfuls of sludge out of the oil pan. And lots of elbo grease to remove the caked on oil.
It's back up and running now fresh remanufactured motor.
Recently I went to our local junk yard to get some parts. I found a 1998 ford wind star with a push rod 3.0 same valve covers as the ranger. It has a different upper intake and the lower intake has bigger injectors. My question is would I be able to use this intake set up to achieve more HP. And would I need to do something with my compute to use the bigger injectors.
