Hey I bought a lil ranger today. Is runs okay for a four banger. the engine idles Ina rhythmic fashion. The distributor housing is loose and I can adjust the idle speed with turning it. I set it to idle about 800-1000 and it sounds better. How I prevent it from turning loose again?
Also the throttle is pretty stiff where is a good place to lube? The pedal moves about one inch from closed to wot
Repair history is that the TPS was malfuctioning and the EGR wasn't building vacuum, I assume it's been fixed correctly.
The truck also pings at middle rpms, not sure where it's coming from because it only makes noise when I'm driving
Are there any otherthing else I should check knowing that I just bought the truck.
Thanks everyone
