I sure hope I am posting in the right spot. My friend just picked up a 93 ranger XLT for her daily driver. It has the 4 cyl 8 spark engine. The truck drove like a dream the first 100 miles or so. Today the check engine light came on and the engine ran so poorly that the truck felt like it was shuddering. When it was turned off and allowed to sit for 5 minutes I restarted it and was unable to duplicate the symptoms. I can offer the following information regarding this truck and the incident.
Truck has 123k miles
It's below 40 degrees outside
Truck was just filled completely with fuel. The fuel gauge showed full, however when the incident occurred the fuel gauge dropped to below empty. The truck was taken to a gas station where it only took $6 to fill it all the way up.
I know exactly nothing about these trucks and their engines, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
