You where right!! I had ben starting to suspect it an checked the most obvious points, but thought a microchip would just shut down from it, not set a terminal hot that should not be. I guess it's more rudimentary electronic in that box 😆 Anyway, you gave me one more puch and I found it! It was...

Thank you! I'll do that! I have an imported ranger, but not sure if it's a California model. Dont think so. There is no emission requirements for this car. I hear it does't matter if the ECM is from a 2x4 or 4x4, but need to be for automatic gearbox not manual. Correct? The lable reads...

So I cut the wire to the electronic control assembly (no 22, tan/lt green) and put it to ground instead. Left terminal 22 on the ECM empty. The fuel pump is now running full time when key turned. I still got no life from engine. I can make it run on starter gas, but not a single cough on gas...

Thanx a bunch! So it"s ok to hotwire the relay so the pump is on all the time the ignition is on? If I pull the wire from the switch to the ECM and just ground it that would be the result I figure. That way I don't disable the inertia switch, which feels safe (as long as it doesn't break).

Hey all! I'm at a roads end with getting my ranger 2.9 -88 running again. It just died on me when starting it up after winter. I think I have located a problem, but dont know how to poceed. The fuel pump relay semes to work just fine, but the signal to it is funky. When I turn the key I get 12v...

About that... Isn't the pressure directed like 60/40 front/back? Shouldn't that mean over preassure from the front can't leak to the back at least? I'd like to adjust them to more like 70/30 i fact. Just cus it is so light in the back. Gets really sketchy on the as it is (which we got a lot of...

+1 for Uncle Gump's theory on slack calibration causing locking brake! I tightende it up really well (can't get the f-n drum of again LOL) and the brakes are looking very good! Back still locks before front, but evenly now and way later! I'll get back to you after next inspections when I get...

Don't think so. No pulsing. But I'll change sides on the drums and see if it makes a difference

Can't find anything wrong with the parking brake. No hang ups. No water intrusion problem. Don't se anything out of alignment at all... I'll try adjusting brake pads tighter. It does, yes, but not very good. Test result was 1,4 rear left and 0,4 rear right. The numbers might not tell you...

Hi! Got a problem with my ol Ranger -89 4x4 2,9l V6 Rear brake on driver side locks the wheel really early. Got a fault on car inspection on this too (live in Sweden...) som I can't ride it, and I can't see anything wrong! Nothing loose, nothing that should not be there. On a gravel road or on...

What is that shift kit? Will it help with the lockups? Spare parts are sparse over here. Accessories even more so... truck is old and used so I won't put down big bucks on it

Couldn't see any obvious spot where it came out. Crawled under with a flash light, yes, ofcourse. Semed to me it came out top front somewhare where you cant reach. Mechanics said it came out from the thing conecting it to the engine (english is not my primary language). "Bellhousing"? RonD...

So... I was on my way to one of my hunting sites for moose hunting (in Sweden). A quad on the bed and a small caravan on towe. A load, sure, but far from max. Three houers into the drive there was a road block, so I had to sit on idle for about half an houer. Two miles after that the truck just...

Problem solved. Isch... I'll start a new thread on that. Thanx for input

Yeah. My thaughts too. Does anyone have a scetch or pic of where they are located? Can I get to them without lowering the whole tranny?

Suddenly my truck (-88 2,9l auto 4x4 ranger) stopped pulling. I had a looong line of oil after me, and empty in the gearbox. Crawled under with a flashlight but couldn't see anything obvious. Semes like the oil came out somewhere top front on the box. Sprayed back of the engine. Funny thing is i...

Okay. I cant feel any play in them

Wow... 😶 Thanx Dirtman! The play is about 1/4" i'd guess. The vibration sneaked up, it didn't come in stages. First arround 50mph, then lower and lower speed. Especially bad when giving gas. The vibration frequensy is not aligned with the speed of the wheels. It allso abruptly stops if I let go...

Hi! See video Because of a really bad vibration creeping up on the truck, I jacket it up and started yanking stuff. This don't look too good to me Where is the problem? Inside the differential? Exactly the same play on both sides/hubs. Could this be the reason for my vibration...

Nope! Didn't help 😩🥴
