I honestly have no idea with this truck. Replaced a ton of parts it could’ve been, but none of them solved it.
Any ideas?

1992 Ford Ranger 2.3 5 speed

Replaced ignition control module, crank sensor, plugs, etc

Where is the popping coming from? The intake? The exhaust? If either one of those, do a compression test on all the cylinders. If one is low, it might have a valve stuck open.

You are going to get better help if you just stick to one thread instead of posting new ones.
