help needed

I checked the power at the inertia switch, and it gets 9.8V, but I found out that if I unplug injectors 3 and 4, I get up to 10.8V. Do you have any ideas where else I can get power?

I have just recently swapped a 98 explorer 302 into my late 2001 duratec 2.3 ranger. When I turn the engine on it seems to be reading oil pressure on the coolant gauge and nothing on the oil pressure gauge. Do I need to swap some wires in the gauge cluster??? has anyone ran into similar issues...

Hey y’all, I’ve recently started working on my brothers 94 ranger with the 2.3L. I’m having trouble getting it fired up. It had been sitting since 2017 after he passed and it ran when parked. I have replaced the fuel pump and exhaust side coil pack (previously wasn’t getting fire to plugs). I...

I have a 97 2.3 ranger, was having some problems that ended up being the MAF, truck is now running pretty good again. But I still have the problem with it accelerating after I let off the gas for 4 or 5 seconds. I don't think it's the throttle sticking because it seems to only do it if I'm...

I have a 97 2.3 ranger with 179,240 miles, has been a great and strong running truck but recently started bumbling around while shifting and when you first start it in the morning it sounds really rough, can even kind of hear it rhh rhh rhh up and down in idle and after about a minute it goes...

Hi there, I am a 21 year old college student looking to buy a project car for my dad and I to work on while I complete school. He is extremely knowledgeable about cars and engines, much more than I am, and I want to buy this bronco I found online as a suprise. However it seems possibly to cheap...

I have a 1992 Ranger (4cyl , 2wd) and I just put 32” tires on it. I am wondering is the 4.56s were overkill or would the 4.10s work just as well for my truck. I am just unsure due to my small engine size.

New here, not sure if this is where it belongs Just bought a 2011 4.0 4x4 with 133k miles. Drove real great initially but wanted to change the oil with 5W30 and transmission filter/fluid just to keep on top of it myself. Dropped the tranny pan the magnet looked like a caterpillar with metal...

It’s my sisters ranger and to be honest I am a novice to these terms. It is a 1998 ford ranger 3.0 auto, and at the moment it is sitting. Her husband is trying to fix it but to no avail. Here are I guess what they did and some lingering symptoms and thoughts. They replaced the radiator and the...

So I had to pull the 2.9 out of my 1988 ranger recently due to a hole in the oil pan (engine mount bracket somehow came loose, a rock got between the cradle and the pan, and then while offroading proceeded to punch a hole through the pan). I reinstalled the engine, and noticed that now when...

Hello, Shortly after I fixed the same 1997 Ford Ranger 3.0l Engine, the same problem came back after I replaced the PCM. For about 3 days I was able to run the truck completely normally and reliably. When I got in the truck to head home after work last night, it started having the same issue...

Apparently the 2001 to 2003, 2.3 engine is no longer supported by either Mazda or Ford. One can no longer purchase intake manifold and many other parts. If you have part numbers the visuals are disappearing from sites. Not to mention that Ford and Mazda seem to be deleting part numbers from...

As the video shows, when I accelerate fast and hit 3rd gear, there is a high-pitched grinding, before the noise stops after a few seconds. I've never worked with transmissions much, especially automatics, so any help would be much appreciated.
