Had the same problem turned out to be the little springs in the clutch dish had lost their tension. A little late with the reply haven't cruised through this forum for awhile. Probably help someone else who may hear a similar noise if the clutch don't slip don't worry about it. Clutch disk takes...

the impact interrupter switch is on the upper floorboard under the glove box. How long did it sit upside down? Could be hydro locked. Pull some plugs and look for oil on them. R

Yes and yes and yes. Headers are expensive and make for a tight fit for the 3.0 and 4.0 you can custom make down stream pipes from the headers into single cats and out the rear in true dual exhaust, but some states will not let you do this. Some header manufacturers say that the headers will...

Oil pump is a pain to do in the truck. I have heard it can be done without pulling the engine or dropping the front end. Both of these methods work but are a lot of work. The guy who said he did it did just as suggested by highplainshifter. You need to remove some stuff up top to do it. It would...

I think he has lower gears than 330s. Automatic or manual? What engine? My 2001 Edge is a 3.0L automatic with 410 gears. These are stock that came with the truck from the factory. Also I think Rangers only come with either 410 or 373 rear gears from the factory. With the low gears I am running...

Sounds familiar to me as I traded my 94 4X4 five speed on my new to me truck 2001 4X4 Edge. I had the same problem with shifting and it was the hydraulic clutch slave cylinder needed to be replaced. I tried bleeding it but it didn't help. To bleed it you need a friend to step on the clutch while...

Pick yourself up a Chilton's or Haynes manual for your truck. There is a section in both that covers tune up and servicing intervals. Types of fluids to use and when to use them, lube points, inspection schedules for brakes and such. Keep up with the basics and your truck will last you a long...

Hi wolfman, I became addicted to Rangers about five years ago with my first one a 94 3.0L five speed 4X4. Still hooked and I am driving a 2001 Ranger Edge 4X4 automatic with electronic shift on the fly. welcome aboard. R

I agree with brazospete on this one. You not will most likely spend a fortune for used parts from junkyards and parts stores. All the major parts are specific to the engine and the transmission on through, drivelines, front end axles, mounts, transfer case, probably some front suspension stuff...

Hi Doug, welcome. I haven't heard of using the ignition key for resetting your CEL (check engine light). One thing that I do when I need to do something like this is to disconnect the negative battery cable for 20 minutes and that automatically resets the computer. If your CEL still comes on see...

Did #5 foul out again? If is misfiring like the the code PO305 says it is, did you pull that plug and take a look again? If the engine is shaking at an idle could be a burnt (ugh) valve or bad ring, and if tends to ping a lot you may be burning a piston. I suggest you do a compression test and...

Avoid Bosch they tend to burn up quickly with Ford's hot ignitions. I use Autolite double platinums and in my opinion are the best spark plug for the money. I have read that a lot of people have went with stock Motorcraft platinums. Those are the original OEM's that came in the engine from the...

Not only is it to big to fit well it is a lot heavier and Ranger frames and front end parts are not designed to carry that much weight. Can be done with lots and lots of money and a few thousand hours of labor. I agree that it is not worth the effort. Find a running junkyard engine or one that...

I looked up your trouble code on vehicle here: http://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/ford/ It says for: P1309 Misfire Detection Monitor not enabled Don't know if this helps you but when it comes to misfires the cheapest way to go if you need to throw parts at it is by changing your spark...

It has an internal timing chain and gear set. Why do you ask if I may? You should not have any troubles with it most 3.0's last a very long time and I haven't heard of any that had a timing chain problem unless they are high mileage. R

don't bother looking under the distributor cap cuz it should not have one. Ford did away with the distributor in 1996. wires and plugs could help but I doubt that the water gort to them as they are higher up than the gas flap. You could pull the wires and see if moisture is inside them on the...

Are you going catback? or are you putting in Magnaflow cats and muffler and tailpipe complete system? In my last Ranger I had a Magnaflow cat and a Dynomax muffler and tailpipe kit. I did get a little more power and a small gain in mileage. I have a flowmaster single in and dual out cat back...

Is it 4X drive? Does it have exposed front axles with CV joints in the front? If it does it could be a CV joint. I am not positive but I think that set up began in 2001. If you have the older kind like I had on my 94 one of the front axles is semi enclosed in the extended differential housing...
