while driving to work this morning my the engine quit. I managed to get it started and limp to the dealer where they determined nothing was wrong with the truck by using their diagnostic equipment. However, when I started the truck it stalled several times before idling properly. temp outside was -6c when it stopped running. Any suggestions?

the coolant was checked by the dealer and it is satisfactory. The engine is a 4.0L with just over 100,000 km. They ran the diagnostics and couldn't find anything. I asked the dealer to change the plugs and wires but they were reluctant. For this I paid $120.
Damm dude...... Run some dry gas through it , might have water in the fule lines and while your at it change the fule filter ! That thing is spouse to be changed every 3000 miles and on a truck with 100k that may be the problem
So you think it is a fuel supply issue and not the computer? Where is the fuel filter located? Nice truck. I bought it because I was told Rangers are one of the most dependable trucks on the road.
So far I topped up the gas tank and added a bottle of gasline antifreeze. I will get my mechanic to replace the fuel filter this weekend. What amazes me is that the dealer couldn't find the problem. And for this they charged me $120?! I had to go online to find the solution.
