93 Ranger loses power.
I recently bought a 93 Ranger with a 4 cyl engine and a manual trans. It only has 89,000, but I have replaced many parts including the clutch, plugs, tires, muffler, etc. I have had nothing but problems with this truck, and continue to do so. The latest problem is that it loses power after it warms up. It has no pickup when I shift through all the gears. It's especially bad in 5th. I have a hard time picking it up past 55! I have also noticed that once its warmed up, it sounds louder. Not sure why this is happening, but any help will be greatly appreciated. By the way, I thought it may have had something to do with the catalytic converter. It turns out, however, that the previous owner took out the catalytic and just ran a pipe straight through the muffler. Thanks.
