I see some small cracks between water jacket holes and head bolt holes… it’s concerning. What do you think? Early style 4.0 ohv, in my ‘93 Splash rc Flareside . Just get a new head? Run it? The reason for having the head off is because of noisy lifters, but I see a lot of wear in the rocker arms...

I check my oil after an oil change, ran the truck at idle 3 or 4 times, maybe 30 minutes total, no road time. There is more oil than what I put in, and it smells like gas. I’ve already replaced regulator, all six injectors, upper intake gasket, but same issue. 1993 Ranger with 4.0. Any ideas?

My son has a 1993 Splash model... He got in a small wreck and the bumper is toast. Everywhere I look (like ebay), all the front bumpers are for every model but Splash! Even when it says Splash in the title, looking further down in the description, it says "Does not fit Splash model". Is there...

I have a 1998 Mazda B2500. Just before Thanksgiving 2013, at around 240,000 miles, I had my local Ford dealership install a remanufactured 2.5 liter engine in my truck, which I was told came with a 3 year, unlimited mileage warranty. Well, by the time of my first oil change at 5000 miles, I had...

I read through a lot of these posts about the manual trans, but it seems as though a lot of the time, people are just throwing parts at a problem, hoping to find the fix the first time around. I am trying to avoid that, because I am very limited for time. New clutch 10K miles ago: I started my...

Thought I would start a new thread and abandon the old for lack of replies... I still have ping. Just replaced EGR solenoid. EGR works when I pull vacuum on it, so thinking DPFE might be bad? Don't want to replace both EGR and DPFE, so if anyone has an idea what I should take a chance on first?

please delete post; forgot I had a thread going on this already

In my last post here in this forum, I had some heating problems, among other things... I had a hunch today, so I dropped the glove box and had a look at the blend door. No matter what function I put the climate control knob on, the blend door never opens, whether the engine is cold or hot! I...

Ok, no codes... Cleaned MAF and IAC. The engine has an off-idle ping, but not under heavy acceleration. Just at cruise speed, touching the pedal ever so slightly will cause ping. Also, changing gears when engine is warm, as soon as I step on the clutch, engine speed spikes up, even during...

Since I have owned this '98 B2500, the heat has never been good. Sometimes it will blow warm, sometimes cold, no matter how long it's been running. Most of the time the temp gauge shows cold, like it was just started. Once in a while, it will go up to the normal range, but not for long. The heat...

I have a 1998, and wondering what it would look like with the front drop springs and rear flip... (I have a Mazda B2500 extended cab)
