  5. #2 Cylinder is not firing

    I ran a cylinder balance test, trying to identifya miss, and got a code 20 (cylinder #2 not firing properly) code. I have installed new spark plugs, new wires and checked compression.

  6. Houston, we've got a problem...

    Performing a Key On, Engine Off test, I received codes 173 and 176. According to my code reader reference, that means I have an HEGO sensor fault (rich) and HEGO sensor fault, always lean. Could someone please shed some light in "plain english" on how to fix this problem? Thanks a bunch! C:>
  7. Accel Coil Pack???

    I'm looking at replacing my coil pack (93 Ranger, 4.0L, V6), and more for affordability rather than performance, I've run into the ACCEL coil packs on e-bay. Is anyone running these? are they worth it? or am I going to regret going with the aftermarket components? Thanks a bunch!

    Wouldn't it be nice if we had one? perhaps even one per year? Thanks!
  11. Where does this wire go?

    I am not sure if we have a good wiring diagram/schematic of the engine bay for a 93 4.0. But the connector I am trying to hook up has a blue and a white wire (about gauge 14), with a black plastic cap/holder. It is (in my car) coming out of the wiring loom, just under the throttle cable and it...
  12. Where's the ECU?

    I have a 93, 4.0. Just replaced the head gasket and getting ready to fire it up for the first time (truck is new to me). Could you please let me know where the ECU is so I can see if I'm getting any error codes? Thanks a bunch! C:>

  14. exhaust manifold gaskets

    I am working on a 93 4.0 ranger with a blown head gasket. I noticed the gasket kit comes with exchaust manifold gaskets... but the truck didn't have gaskets when torn. Any suggestions? should I use the manifold gaskets anyway?
  15. Replacing head gasket but...

    What risks would I be running if I: 1) Didn't replace head bolts? 2) Did a visual inspection but didn't replace the heads themselves? Thanks! C:>
