I have a 1999 Ranger 3.0 4x4 with a seized engine. I brought it to my mechanic and he quoted me $3,000 for a junkyard engine swap. That sounds a bit expensive to me. I'm not capable of doing it myself, as I don't have any of the necessary space or tools. I'm willing to purchase an engine...

I had to remove and replace my Fuel Filter on my 1999 Ford Ranger XLT Stepside 3.0L Flex Fuel Splash. In doing so I noticed my fuel filler neck was rusting out and the hoses looked horrible. I have been searching all over google and this forum to try to find information pertaining to the size...

My name is Ben. I've owned a B3000 since April 1st of 2003. It's not my every day driver anymore, but I use it as a utility truck and it has held up great. Glad to finally be a part of a community!
