But now the dash ones dont work at all. I'd like to have both. Usually motors have some extra ports for this stuff. I'm no pro but my old 59 flat head had a few ports for both water and oil
Hi all.
I was wondering if someone could give me some help? I have a 83 Ranger 2.3 and I only have idiot lights in the dash. I would like to hook up a after market 3 pack of gauges. Do these 2.3 motors have a extra port that taps into the water jacket so I could put in a temp gauge? Also what...
Well it's been a while. I pulled the carb off and the 4 bolts on the underside weren't loose but weren't very tight either. I plue lock tight on them and got them tight. What was lose like way loose was the two nuts that hold the carb itself to the intake. I got it all tightened up and it does...
As for the carb bolts I can see one. I can feel a second across from the one but that's it. I dont see or feel 4. You sure this carb bolts down with 4 bolts
And it just has a smell when it's running kinda burns your nose. I relate it to too much feel in my day. Maybe it's just oil.
I will get the 4 bolts tight. Which carb do I have anyone know?
I also noticed some airlines broken see photos its 2 line both going to the computer area
The one end has a boot but nothing to plug into.
I also noticed the damper on the air intake is open when cold. I have not started the...
That's a photo on my carb. I gave it a good shake and its doesnt wobble for say but I can see it move a little.

I notice to when running seems like Its running too rich from the smell.
Sorry for the long reply. I apologize and appreciate all the help
Its a 2.3 4 cylinder. I the cold start was way to high when I first bought it. I got the cold start operating pretty dang good. But once warm I'd say its probably idling around 1000rpm maybe 1100. Just needs to come down a little.
I also notice the idle screw next to the cold start screw is...
My truck has a high idle. I feel even when cold the cold start seems real high. Then after a min it will drop down but still be idling high. Its carburated.
I also noticed the idle adjustment screw isnt even touching the carb.
Could my cold start be adjusted wrong?
I pulled my altinator the other day and now I'm unsure of 2 things first is what terminal does the black boot clip on to?
Second this black wire pulled out from somewhere but I dont know where see pictures.
The loose wire is like the other end of that same terminal
So let me correct myself when I put the truck in 4wd I have two lights come on I assume one is the 4x4 indicator light but what's the other.
I also attached a pic of my dash
