Hello everyone This is my first post on TRS but I read posts hear regularly.
So here's my issue, I recently bought a 2003 Ranger Edge 3.0l 2wd, great little truck. So far i have personally performed an oil change (Mobil one full synthetic), changed IAC vavle to clean a rough idle, Swapped an ignition switch, new plugs and wires (motocraft not bosch), and changed the speed sensor on top of the differential. The truck runs great except for one slight problem the truck accelerates fine up until 45 which is the speed limit throughout most of my driving so i let of the throttle and the truck raises gear and rpms fall below 2k when i gewt back on the throttle the truck has litterally no power and it takes alot of throttle and quite awhile to drop gear. Since i know this truck has no Kickdown cable and I have already changed my ABS speed sensor which I have read can cause shifting issues, amicorrect to assume the problem is related to the TPS? or is there something else im missing here? I have thought about the idea that the issue was the overdrive not disengaging correctly but i would assume its not since i can turn it on and off and it works flawless.
I have also noticed that my gas pedal feels tighter after its warmed up than when i first start the truck and its cold Im not sure if this is a related issue or not.
and finally NO LIGHTS!!!
Thank you, all help is appreciated.
