Hey guys. I have a 02. With the 3.0 and a automatic. I just got it for a cheap ride for my commute. I got a 09 powerstroke CCSB for the weekends:). But anyway, problem is it has a slightly rough idle and if u get into it half throttle or more and get it above 3000 rpm its cuts out and skipps horrible. However if it drops another gear and tachs on up to 4250 or above it runs fine? Any ideas? This thing is drivin me nuts. Its a good lil truck but it just has a couple problems need to be taken care of.

Welcome to the Ranger Station Forums!

What have you done to it so far? I am assuming that you just bought it. If you haven't done anything yet I would start with a basic tuneup plugs, plug wires, fuel filter, PCV, etc. Run some Seafoam through the brake booster line, and clean out the TB with some carburetor cleaner. With the truck off just spray some on the butterfly and get some of that gunk off and take a tooth brush and see what else you can get down the throat of it. Put some TECHRON in the fuel tank to clean out the injectors. I'm not trying to insult your intelligence. I just don't know what you have done to it.:icon_twisted: Hope that helps.:icon_cheers:

DPFE. They don't have a long life.

Run your codes. You should get an EGR related one.
