    Seriously confused by 94 Explorer

    Well a couple months back i posted about a shuddering problem my truck was having. A lot of people jumped and said it was clutch, but it ended up the clutch is just dandy :D Since then the truck has gotten new plugs, wires, coil pack, intake boot, thermostat, fuel filter, and had the intake and...

    Has Anyone Cammed the 4.0L?

    I'm trying to decide on if a new pair of cams is worth the money. I'm looking to get to a low 14 in my quarter mile in my little RWD and I'm slowly crossing mods off of my list. I've gotten a tuner and an intake and I know that more aggressive cams would help that time shrink, although most...

    Rocker Shaft Direction Issues

    Hey guys, just getting ready to put my Ranger back together after a top end rebuild which has seemed to drag on for entirely way too long. I removed the rocker rail, or shaft (that the rocker arms sit on) and put them in order in a box. However, while moving stuff around in the garage, I mixed...
  5. 4.0L Runs Rough when Cold

    Hey Guys my truck has me stumped. I have a 1994 ranger 4.0L 4x4 with a manual trans. The truck runs really rough on cold start up (after sitting for 6-8 hours). It sputters lurches and hesitates at anything under 2k rpm. After about 10 minutes of driving the engine smoothes out though it...
  6. Engine noise please help

    New here! I have 97 4.0l. It sounds like a diesel. At idle it ticks very loud but gets quiter when accelerating and becomes more rapid. This is what I have done so far. Cleaned mass air and checked with elc. Tester work as should. New plug wires. Checked and gapped plugs. Only code is 1433...
  7. Need Some Transmission Advice

    I just picked up a 93 Ranger 4.0 4x4. It has a M5R1 in it. When I go to shift in to first sometimes it catches and sometimes it doesnt. When it does catch and I engage the clutch again 4 out of 5 times it will come out of gear. If I get second to catch and let off the gas a little sometimes if...

  10. 4.6l Mustang Injectors??

    I found a killer deal on 6 injectors with fuel rail and regulator all for $25 on CL in my area. Would they be a worthy upgrade for my 4.0 before I slap it in my Bronco II? Where can I find more info on how much fuel they output and such? I did some Googling but haven't found quite what I'm...

  12. Oil Leak FMS?

    Howdy everybody! At the suggestion of BigJim, i'm starting my own thread to sew some ideas about my Ranger. I've got a 2002 4.0L V6 XLT Auto 4WD with 126K miles, using Full Syntec oil. I appear to have an oil leak coming from the front main seal; enough to see oil, not enough to drip on the...

    My new toy!

    OK so I have finally bit the bullet. The 84 B2 needs to much love to keep her going. Purchased my new toy today. I found a rust-free, 4dr, m5od Sploder. 138k on the clock (about 50k less than the b2 and 100k less than my ranger). The price was 2450. What do y'all think?? :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

    Hey Guys I just bought a 2007 B4000 a couple months ago loaded up with the Se+ package as well as the 4x4, and the V6. I know that people are talking a lot about getting high horsepower/torque numbers but I'm just looking for some everyday driving power. A little more kick at low RPM's say...
