Hi Everyone, I have 2007 Ranger 4.0 auto that's giving me issues starting when cold. At first I thought it was because it was so cold out the past week (-20 celcius) but then when it warmed up the issue persisted. Then I thought , well maybe I got some bad gas at the station. Filled up a tank of...

Hey, I was just wondering if the transmission out of an 85 ranger 4cyl diesel is the right bolt pattern for a 2.3L 4cyl gas? I'm thinking of getting a ranger 4cyl and putting in a 4wd trans and tcase for the low ranger capability.

My brother started swapping a 4L into his 2.9L ranger and we can't get it to start. we have spark, have pressure at the fuel rail, not sure how much as i don't have a tester but it will squirt at the schrader valve. but the injectors don't seem to be firing? We swapped the whole interior...

I went to put some yellowtop 19lb injectors on my 1993 2.3 instead of the stock injectors, and they seem to be a completely different connector. Has anyone else had this problem? It's still two contacts but I'm afraid they'll be able to just rattle off and disconnect. Anyone have any tips?
