My uncle has a 94 Ranger, 2.3L, manual transmission. It's got close to 200,000 miles on it. He's dealing with an intermittent serious lack of power. I drove in it with him and most of the time the truck has no power. When I say no power I mean he can hit a top speed of maybe 15 MPH while going up a hill. Once in a while the truck will all of a sudden run like there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. He had the fuel filter changed, the plugs, the plug wires, he had the dual coil packs changed. There is no check engine light on but when I hook up one of those ancient EEC code readers to it I get 335 which is defined in the manual as EGR sensor voltage out of range. Can any of you shine some of that mighty intellect on me and tell me what YOU would do if dealing with this issue? Thanks a ton in advance,
Dan
EDIT*****
Today we pulled the sensor out and brought it to the local NAPA. I was asking the guy at NAPA if installing the new sensor did not fix the problem, could we return it. He said no and then explained a possible test to see if the sensor actually went bad. He told me to plug the EGR valve and if the truck still ran rough it wasn't the sensor. This really didn't make sense to me but I am no expert.
