greetings ranger pros,
i am trying to help out my brother. he owns 1998 ranger. thats what is posted on the door. he has been firing the parts cannon with no results. in a nutshell. extremely rough idle and no power at all. i hooked my fuel pressure guage to it and will give 30 psi at koeo. holds steady. cranks goes to 45psi. quick tap the throttle no more than 50psi. stumbles and knocks. if i can keep it running the fuel pressure is all over the map. needle bounces like crazy. backfires off and on attempting to crank. if yall any ideas please share. he spent a fortune at a local shop and was definetly ripped off. it is a 2.5 engine. please help. no trouble codes using a reader. i wish i had a real scan tool
