Bought a 92, 4cyl, 2wd, 5spd Ranger. Drove it home and around a bit. Installed new wiper blades and treated the headlight lenses. Added "Heet" to the gas along with 5 gal of 87 low lead. Started truck. ran for about five minutes then died. Cranks, fires, runs like crap for a few seconds/minutes then dies. Installed new battery and terminal ends. (It needed it anyway).
Changed fuel filter. Now I can start it and it will run for a few minutes-nice smooth idle, no issues-then it dies. Fuel pump runs and flows when ignition is first turned on. I can hear it. Some have said there are two pumps?
Before I buy stock in O'Rielly's and make out an allotment schedule, anyone have similar crap happen? How did you fix it?
This is the injected, twin plug per cylinder four banger.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Jim.
