    98 ford ranger cup holder

    The only thing come to my mine is pipe adapter from the plumbing department. Take the truck cup holder and your super big gulp to the plumbing department. The small end should fit snugly to the cup holder and the bigger part should fit your "super big gulp". You may have to get several...

    92 Ranger wants to die the first few minutes

    Brinker88 is on the right track, the battery have enough to keep the engine running for a short time. But eventually will run out of power from the battery. You need "alternator" to keep the electrical system going and charges the battery. I am not sure if that model have "voltage regulator"...

    IAC? MAF? Clutch? help me out

    IAC => idler air control, this vale control the amount of air entering the intake and tell the computer how much fuel needed. Normally, you would have "high idle or low idle" if IAC is faulty. But it is sound like she is not getting enough fuel to the injectors. The reason I suggested fuel...

    97 Ranger won't start ( no spark or fuel at same time )

    In front of the crank pulley there is a sensor. I guessed it is "crank sensor", it tell the PCM to fire and spray fuel to the engine. Oil leaked or coolant will shorten the connection. Clean the connector or replace with new sensor.

    1999 Ranger 4x4 5-speed tranny issue??

    If the tranny, you can drain the tran fluid and see if there is any large metal coming out of the drain hole. If nothing, just fill with quality ATF (2.8qt). Another thing you can check while under the truck is the drive line to the front axle. The boot on these thing tend to tear and lost...

    Something is stuck in that position. I would fill it up and drive it on a winding road, with lots of break check and see if that loosen it. If not you will have to take it apart and manually reinstall it gently. You don't have to drop the thank to get to the unit. Just lift the bed high...
