    2003 Edge Idle Surges and Stalls with AC ON

    This started about 3 months ago. No CEL, but when truck is at IDLE with AC ON, it will start to drop and then surge after 10 seconds or so and progressively the idle will go lower each cycle and eventually stalls. I have not changed any parts as of this point. Any ideas?

    2003 Ranger Edge ABS issue

    Recently bought the truck, ABS fully functional. Swapped in a spindle lift from my 2000 Ranger Trailhead (non-ABS truck) which I was getting rid of. I left the rotors on the spindles since it was easier and since I just repacked the bearings, it was a bonus. Initially, I tied the ABS sensors...

    2003 Ranger 3.0L Cuts Out around 3000 RPM

    Let me start out by saying that I went down a long dark road during the journey leading up to this, so this one requires a lot of reading... I have two 2003 Ranger Edge 3.0L trucks. One is at AT, one a MT. I wanted to swap the transmissions between the trucks, so needless to say I swapped all...

    Weight and/or mileage difference standard or extended cab

    I've never been a fan of the extended cabs, but in Arizona, it's getting to be near impossible to find a standard cab 3.0L 5 speed 2WD that's not a complete turd. There seem to be many more extended cabs available, so I'm getting to a point where I'm thinking about doing one if the mileage...

    Engine/Starter Block Plate 3.0 5 Speed

    Bought a 2003 Edge 2WD that's missing the block plate. Oddly, the starter doesn't grind at all, but if it's supposed to have it... * Found via the web that apparently they are interchangeable from 1994 through 2008 all 3.0L manuals.

    3.0L Heavy Oil Leak at Rear of Engine

    Hello everyone! I'm a long time Ranger owner, so I recently added a 2003 Edge 5 speed for my son to drive. Noticed it had a pretty serious leak coming off the bottom of the bell housing when I bought it, but figured a quick rear main seal replacement would take care of it. When I got the...

    2000 Ranger 5.0 V8 stalled - please help

    My 2000 Ranger 2WD with 5.0L Explorer motor stalled when my wife was driving home. Turns over fine, but sounds like it isn’t firing. Could smell gas, so I decided to check timing. Timing light indicated that the cam position sensor was functioning and hadn’t slipped, as well as the timing...

    Excessive Pedal Travel To Brake on 99 Ranger

    Truck was hit in front while sitting in the street by a neighbor with a Honda Accord. My 99 Ranger coil spring truck with spindle lift kit was hit on the driver corner mostly fascia and directly on the tire while the Honda was still accelerating (likely drinking involved). Here's a pic of the...

    Anyone know how to get the correct part number?

    I've got a 2000 Ranger that I swapped in a 5.0L V8 into. I need to determine the right part number of temperature sending unit that feeds the gauge. I know I can use the OEM 5.0 unit, but I've already tossed it and need a new one. Problem is that every application lists two temperature...

    PATs Issue

    I think I really messed up. I've got a 2000 Ranger that I did a 5.0L swap on recently. I've been trying to troubleshoot a miss for 4 weeks now. In my frustration, I finally decided to try another PCM. Initially I tried to start it and it would only turn over, but it wouldn't start (injectors...

    NEED HELP Engine Misfire on 2000 Ranger 5.0L V8

    ADDED A COMPLETE UPDATE ON PAGE 2 SO NO ONE NEEDS TO READ EVERYTHING STEP BY STEP. I've done 3 Ranger v8 swaps over the last 6 years prior to this one with no issues, but this one is proving challenging. Although, this is the first time I've used the long block from a Mustang instead of an...

    Anyone have experience programming new keys to the PCM?

    I have an SBB V33.02 programmer that I bought like 3 months ago (from overseas). I was able to successfully reprogram new keys on my 2005 Civic, but was unable to just add a key. Now I am trying to reprogram new keys on my 99 Ranger and can't get it to program new keys or add a key either...

    99 3.0 gets poor mileage

    Hi, I bought the truck last spring cheap, but totaled. It was running good, so I didn't look it over as good as I should. When I got it home, I checked the codes and noticed an EGR related code, so I cleared them and noticed that the O2 system was immediately "OK", not "INC" like usual. I...

    99 Ranger Airbag Code "35"

    Truck was already wrecked when I bought it with airbags deployed. I replaced the airbags on the 99 Ranger with a pair from a 96 Explorer. I did not replace the crash sensors. The RCM was showing a "19" code which means the memory is full (due to the airbags deploying). I had a friend with a...

    EGR workaround for 3.0 with composite manifold for emission testing

    I needed to get the 99 Ranger with 3.0L and 2003 composite intake through emissions here in Arizona recently. Here they merely connect to the diagnostic port and check for codes in the PCM. They don't even pop the hood for OBD II vehicles (after '95). I bought the truck already modified and...

    99 Ranger 3.0 with composite intake idle problem

    I purchased the truck a couple of months ago wrecked and have spent some time replacing the bed, tailgate, rear window, both bumpers, header panel, grille, and lighting all around. Truck has a rebuilt motor in it with 20K miles and is super clean. Runs awesome as long as you're not in neutral...

    Can PCM be fooled into thinking EGR is present?

    I've got a 99 Ranger with 3.0L that I recently purchased. Intake has been swapped to a later model composite, throttle body swapped, and JBA headers, but he removed the EGR valve, EGR solenoid, DPFE, and capped off the port in the LH header. He lived in Tonopah, AZ where emissions are not...

    Front Bumper Clearance Issue On 99 Ranger

    I just recently bought a '99 2WD standard cab that was wrecked when I got it. Front bumper was a pretzel and grille, header, and lighting all wiped out. The truck had a 2001 2WD bumper and valance on it. It also had a 3" front spindle and rear block kit as well as a 3" body lift when I got...

    Anyone in AZ?

    Got a 99 Ranger with a damaged LH bed side. Looking for someone in Arizona with a good bed going pre-runner that I can swap and give some cash to so they can cut up my bed instead of a straight one. I'll get a pic up here soon.
