Bought a 2004 ranger 4x4 auto a month ago. Thing ran great until this morning. It is cold here (-20 C). On my way to work it died. Wont idle properly, hovers around 500 rpm according to the tsch and eventually dies. Giving it gas it seems to be sputtering. Figure I have ice in the lines. Put a couple bottles of de-icer in at lunch and let it sit till after work. Issue still exists. Any suggestions on where to start troubleshooting? There doesnt seem to be any exhaust restrictions. When in drive it sputters and doesnt have enough power to even move before it dies.
