I recently traded a grand Cherokee for a new-to-me "88" ranger. I say "88" because the body is titled as an 88 but the motor appears to be a carbureted 2.8l with a motocraft 2150 from I'm guessing an 83-84. It is a 5 speed 4x4 though I'm unsure what transmission it has at the moment. My problem is that 1st-3rd seem to have plenty of power throughout the band, but once I hit fourth it bogs down heavy, same in fifth. It will eventually fight its way up to speed. I've changed the plugs, and air filter and that's about it so far. Anyone have a good source for figuring out where these vacuum hoses go?
