New maf made no change Ran a KOER test and got code 116 Took a peek at the coolant sensor and noticed it looking weird. took it out and viola. The contacts probably weren’t engaged. got a new one coming tomorrow, fingers crossed. sometimes I wish I would have switched to obd2 when I did the...

Yeah it’s a swap. Runnin on eec-iv Been running fine the last 2-3 years. This problem just came up.

Buying a MAF today to try out. I will report back.

I have a 4.0 sohc When the engine is cold it’ll start and idle fine but as soon as I touch the gas pedal it’ll almost shut off. Release gas pedal and the rpm’s pick back up quickly. This problem goes away completely when the engine is warm Also some times, cold or warm when coming to a stop the...

I’ve done the ohv to sohc swap in both a obd1 and obd2 truck. You can swap the engine without changing wire harness or computer. I have a whole write up on it on a different site. I’ll pm you the link.

I don’t think there’s any right or wrong 4 link geometry. well, let me rephrase. There’s lots of wrong 4 link geometry. But also lots of right! Less than 100% anti squat can be right and more than 100% anti squat can also be right. Having driven prerunneers with both low and more amounts of anti...

not really. 4 links can be built with low amounts of anti squat which will transfer lots of weight rearward when under power. link spreads LOOK like they will have good squat characteristics from where im lookin... did you guys do a 4 link calculator to see what your squat percentages are and stuff?

It’s the upper intake Not sure what year the engine is

True but also there was not a push rod engine with the pictured intake manifold. I swapped the sohc in

There was two different intakes for the sohc so it might not Thanks!

So I have a sohc 4.0 and am wondering if someone can show me or tell me about the lines that go on to the circled fittings. Do they loop to each other or where do they go? thanks !

diyoffroad.com has a scan cad file of the ranger frame as you can see in some of their product renderings. as they are a DIGITAL product seller im willing to bet theyd sell the frame scan cad files! https://www.diyoffroad.com/vehicle-specific-components/ford-ranger.html

i had to change both blinker/ hazard relays to get them to work...one will not work without the other! thats what was hanging me up most. all good!

turns out it was a faulty blinker relay and bad multifunction switch combo thank you all for your help.

ill check all of the above and get back to you guys. while youre here... my wind sheild wipers do not turn off. seems like theyre set to the slowest setting at all times. if i increase wiper speed via the wiper switch on the blinker lever the speed will increase... but will not fully turn off...
