3.0l

A little back story.... Bought the truck from a dude who didn't know the first thing about maintenance 🙄 Did all the usual inspections; brake fluid dirty as hell, oil needed to be changed, but the coolant looked pretty clean. Overall, good enough to get me home. Did the test drive, everything...

I've got a '98 ranger with a 3.0l and it has an obvious spun bearing. I was wondering if bumping up the oil's viscosity on the next change would help squeeze a little more life out of the motor before it kicks a rod through the block (if so, what viscosity would you recommend?). Any feedback is...

Hi all, I replaced my DPFE sensor a couple weeks ago. WOW! What a difference. Truck would not rev above 3200 or so. Now it will go up to 5k or so. Feels like a whole new vehicle. Friday I stumbled onto the throttle cable mod. Sure enough, even better! Can't believe how well it was running. So I...

I have a 2006 Ford Ranger Sport 2WD 3.0L V6 Automatic. It's a daily driver and gets me to and from work everyday. I noticed that while driving on the interstate, when I am over speeds of 65+ MPH and I accelerate (pedal to the metal) it feels like the transmission slips into neutral and over...

My truck has close to 300,000 miles on the engine and it still runs good, but I want to see if anyone is selling a 3.0L that would fit into my 98' 2WD. Anything that's cheap and in good shape I would probably take. I really want something I can rebuild, clean up and plug and play it into the...
