Hi all, I haven't been around for a while but it looks like I'm gonna get another Ranger...
I'm told it runs strong, but it tries to stall at at red-lights after warming up. (Manual trans).
The IAC is suspected, but I'm wondering if there are any vacuum lines that are hard to find on this engine.
I ask about the hidden vacuum lines because I had problems with the idle on my F-150 years ago. I replaced the IAC, but that didn't fix it... After a while, someone told me about a hidden vacuum line that cannot be seen. You just have to know where it is, reach in, and find it by feel.. Once I found it, it was a simple fix.
Thanks in advance! Cheers,
Jim
