fuel

Ok...so, I have troubleshooted so much the past few weeks regarding a P171 & P174 code. I am wanting to make sure I have covered all bases before I pull the intake. Here is a brief rundown: 1999 4.0 V6 OHV 4x4 1) Valve Cover Gaskets (and ECT sensor) replaced a few months ago 2) Not sure if...

Hey guys i have a '94 ford ranger 2.3L 5speed Manual, the fuel gauge goes back and forth randomly, which tells me everything in the cluster is fine as Far as wiring? If so that leaves me a few possibilities; -Bad ground in fuel pump or sending unit? I just bought this truck and thats pretty...

I have been getting a "too lean" MIL code on both banks and while I preemptively replaced the O2 sensors, that did not fix the issue. So, I dug into the problem and have eliminated a vacuum leak (checked with a pressure gauge ... stayed in green under all conditions except fast / high rev of...

Hi there Truck: 1986 Ford Ranger, 2.3L 4cyl gas, 2WD (Her names Eileen) She spits and sputters and idles rough when it is warm out. Runs slightly better in milder temperatures. Also smells like gas all the time. My first suspect was the fuel pump, as I have changed the pressure regulator and...

Been awhile since I checked in here, but figured I should start here for problem solving.. Recently came into possession of a 94 F150 4x4 302/Auto. If the truck sets overnight it will tend to have a low/rough idle when it drops from high idle, and almost tries to stall. A quick flick of the...

I have an odd problem. When sometimes when I refuel my truck I have problems excelerating after. It spits, sputters. And the other day started died and had to be pushed out of the pumps. I also have the same problems when I excel from a sharp curve or round a bout. It feels like it's running out...

I have had an extremely difficult to diagnose idle issue that has been ongoing for years. It doesn't happen always but seems to be getting more severe recently. The truck is a 1997 4.0 ohv with 160k miles. When I start the truck it will start without any problem. But after it starts The rpm...

A few months ago I swapped out the fuel pump as well as the fuel filter due to a no start situation and a verified no power to the fuel pump. Ever since this time, when I get below a 1/4 of a tank I have problems with idle when coming to a stop. Sometimes, it will die and other times drop to...

Good Evening: I need a fuel sending unit for my '83 Ranger, 2.8 V6, 17 gallon tank. I've searched LMC, RockAuto, Amazon, eBay, various other sites and cannot find anything OEM. Does anyone know where I can order one? And if not OEM, what can take its place? Thanks in advance! Chris

I have a 99 Ranger 4.0 V6 4x4 that is having trouble starting on cold mornings. I have done a little research but I am lost at how many problems can have similar symptoms. So far, all I have tried to to replace the fuel pump relay. Now I don't hear the pump coming on when I turn the key on...

I couldnt find hardly if any similar issue elsewhere on the forum. I have an 87 XLT with a 2.9...in the neighborhood i get around 10 mpg, i never do highway because of the remote area i live in. the engine has over 400k miles on it so its not so surprising. the engine has always had this issue...

I've been looking around at fuel filters because mine needs replacing. First of all, is there any real difference between the cheap and expensive ones, or is it cause they are brand names? Second, I came across these universal inline fram filters too...

I have a 1991 Ranger XLT w/2.4 and auto trans w/129000 miles. Occasionally the engine will " bog down", act as if it's starving for fuel and I will push the peddle to the floor and it seems the transmission slips a bit then it will "catch" and start running fine. It does not do this alot, and...

Spent about two hours searching but couldn't find it on here anywhere. I have a 92 3.0 ranger currently holding a 68 302 in it. I've got a mallory return style regulator and a 500 CFM edelbrock. I've got two problems currently. First, and most annoying, is the fuel setup. There are three lines...

I find myself having to post here again unfortunately, symptoms include very intermittent power loss, of which haven't been able to find a pattern. (It will go a whole day of driving without doing it, ill park in for an hour and get back in and it wont make it 2 blocks before doing it. though...

About a month ago, I started noticing that my 99 Ranger (standard cab, manual transmission) would chug and sputter when coming to a stop. 2 weeks ago my timing belt broke and has been replaced, but I feel that is unrelated to the problem. My truck is doing the same thing, but it's mostly when...

I have a 1986 ranger 2.9. When i crank the engine it might fire once or twice but not start. or if it does start it will not idle and will run extremely rough. There is also A LOT of greyish/white smoke from the exhaust if it starts but it is not from coolant. I have replaced fuel filter, spark...

So ive had my ranger for about 3 months now and i absolutely love the truck.Ive put alot of work into the truck and im going to keep improving it until its perfect in my eyes. But onto my questions...i have been told my truck is a 21 gallon tank and its a 20 or a 19.6 gallon tank. Currently i...

I had to redo the fuel lines in my 302 because the way I had done them was leaking. I have a carbureted motor and was trying to retain the stock in tank pump in my ranger which is a 40 psi pump. I was using a regulator but the pressure was too much and the regulator was leaking. I decided to...

So I swapped in a 1988 HO out of a Mustang GT into my 1988 Ford Ranger. Had somebody else do the wiring because I don't know how to do that stuff all too well. Long story short it wont run past 150 degrees, smokes from being WAY too rich, and burned 5 gallons of fuel just from idling. I pulled...
