Power Loss due to cracked manifold??

[kenadian44]

My 92 Ranger with 5 speed has developed a bad crack on pass side manifold: don't have the power I used to: I have trouble hitting 50 mph. Is this due to the cracked manifold? Thanks

probably

the cracked (presume exhaust manifold).....will mess the O2 sensor and its ability to function.

when was the last time the fuel filter was changed? tune up?

anyway you want to slice it....if they all could be on a fence...they just are not playing nice with each other, the cracked manifold just compounds it all.
