MY 1988 Ranger Extra Cab 2WD 2.9 Auto did something interesting coming home for from moms the other day. I had the cruise on and the truck felt like it hit a small speed bump for a split second. I turned off the cruise and kept driving and about 20 miles later it did it again. The truck 99.9% runs fine and starts fine. It's not perfect but fairly smooth. The motor has less than 1k on it. I'm thinking the fuel filter may be clogged or the high pressure pump possibly bad. Could it be a sensor issue. Maybe a TFT module? I'm on my third TFT since 1998.
The truck sat for about 1 1/2 years getting the work done. Fuel in tank could be a contributing factor although it sat almost empty when truck was finished.
I also need to recheck timing. The truck pings some under load and never did that prior to replacing engine. If the TFT is going bad the truck is going into river. I have had it with the issues. Any help would be appreciated.
