I had my '98 Ranger running perfect after putting alot of time and repairs into it. Recently it had some issues where it was stalling out going downhill. I replaced the fuel pump and filter and put some fuel treatment in the tank. The stalling seemed to stop and it ran excellent for months.
In the past few days it has started to stall out or even run hard on start and stall out. I cleaned all of the MAF Sensors and still the same problem. When it gets a shot of ether in the air box it will run good for a small amount of time and then go back to bogging down and stalling. When running hard if you hit the accelerator it will try to stall and when let off the accelerator it will raise the rps as if it were trying to run well then bog down and stall.
I'm not sure if there is a fuel regulator or such that could be going bad or not. I need the truck back on the road by Monday and am clueless to any other options that could be causing this issue. Hope someone has some insight that could guide me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance for all help.
