hesitation

*originally posted in general, I felt it was more appropriate here, feel free to delete one, mods if you would like. Apologies!* Hello all. This is my first post. You guys always have great advice and feedback, and I am now myself kinda stumped with something so here goes. I have a 01 Ranger...

Alright guys, I need some fellow mechanics to bounce ideas around with because I'm running out of them. Im working on a 87 2.9 ranger with ammeter for a buddy of mine. The ignition skips at idle and cuts out so bad under load it doesn't want to rev past 2000 rpm. It COMPLETELY clears up when the...

Hey guys I just signed up to see if anyone could point me in the right direction with my truck. I’ll start from the beginning when I bought it about 3 months ago. I’ve got a 2006 Ford Ranger xlt 2wd automatic with the 3.0 Vulcan engine. So when I first purchased the truck it ran perfect and I...

I searched all the threads on hesitation, but I don't think I found any that pertain to my situation, so I decided to start a new thread. Please excuse me if I missed one. Here is my situation. 2007 Ford Ranger Sport 3.0L Manual transmission. 78k miles. Excellent shape. No known issues...

I have a 96 2.3 auto with about 200,000 miles on it. Last week I did a timing belt, crank seals, cleaned the crank sensor (oil leak), spark plugs and coils (I removed the intake and throttle and cleaned both. I also cleaned the maf sensor. Since then I have had more problems. It is now having...

The problem began with intermitant power loss, gradually getting worse. Now the truck is absolutly undrivable. I am at the end of my rope and need Help. The truck idles OK, never stalls but fails to make any power at any throttle position. When it is first started it runs fine, and then less...

Any one had this problem before.... I have an '03 Ranger with a 4.0 L and 4 wheel drive. It just started doing this. After it warms up and I come to a stop, while I'm stopped it seems to surge or "chug" and almost feels like it might stall. I cleaned the MAF, and Air Filter (K&N Cold Air...

alright guys, i've got a good one for y'all. i've got a 93 2wd 3.0 with a 5 speed. bought it a few months back from a woman who said it has "a miss", so i knew it needed work going into the deal. replaced all the basic ignition stuff, and even fixed the 02 sensor wires on the passenger side that...

1992 Ranger, 2.3 L, 5sp Mazda, Std Cab / Short bed Hi folks - new to this forum and have searched for related topic, but no luck. . . Just bought this truck and it runs great, except for this hugely annoying problem - can't accelerate up a freeway ramp my mashing the pedal, cause it will...

I just got a '90 Ranger 2.9L 5-speed w/ 152,000 miles about 2 weeks ago. Truck was VERY well maintained by the previous owner and have had to deal with very few minor issues. One of the which is a hesitation/misfire that happens right when the engine reaches operating temp. I have a very...
