I have a 1990 ranger 2.3 5 speed. It runs completely fine, the only issue is my tack doesn't work right anymore, and the truck idles at about 900-1000 and I get 20mpg. I pulled codes, and I had to jump the single pin to the negative battery. I got the following codes 11 o passed 18c erratic...

My ranger is a 1990 2.3 manual, the other day I swap in a new radiator and thermostat. After I fired it up, I noticed my tack was idling at 500rpm, which the engine was not. So I took off, and it seems the tack is unresponsive, the highest it will go is 1000ish even when I have the engine around...

Hey guys, I've got a 1990 ranger 2.3 2wd 5speed custom. When the engine is about a quart low on oil the guage reads below halfway. But once I too it off back to full it sits above half way. When I start the truck up it slowly comes up to above halfway. Unlike my 01 explorer that just clicks to...

Hey guys, I have a 1990 ranger 2.3 5 speed. I switch my hvac slider to the cold side to let the truck heat up faster, then once it was warm I tried to move it back to the hot side. It wouldn't go past the middle, so in my infinity wisdom I forced it, and something popped. Now the slider has no...

Hey guys I have a question relating to my 1990 ranger 2.3 custom. I did a fuel pump awhile back, and noticed that it's tank is plastic, which from what I can figure means it 21 gallons. I wanted to test this fact so I drove it pass my normal 300 mile refill, and around 340 it started stuttering...

My 1990 ranger has a windshield leak due to rust. I know it will need to be removed and new metal put in. I've thought about welding in the new metal but I'm concerned about future rust underneath the welds. Between the two layers of steel. I've read that some people use structural adhesive...

My 1990 Ford ranger custom 2.3 L 5 speed is having fuel gauge issues. With the key off the fuel gauge always rests around 1/4-1/2. The second I turn the truck in it goes to 0. I replaced the OEM fuel pump assembly, and it does the same thing. So I believe that rules out the sending unit. What...

I didn't know exactly where to post this. My 1990 ranger has wiper arms with the little post pin, instead of a loop arm. I can't get the blade to stay on, after 2 wipes it falls off. Does anyone know how to solve this, can I get an arm that has a loop instead of a post. Thanks, Jonn
