Re: Starts and dies after injectors swapped.

Does sound to me that it could be a vacuum leak. Not sure if it would throw a code or anything but that's what I would check

Re: New to starting a 5.0L Swap

Alright so sounds like I will be looking into headers (already have a 2.5" cat back exhaust) and a cam later on. Then I'll probably end up getting a programmer or tuner done here locally. I hear...

New to starting a 5.0L Swap

Well I'm still recently new to the forum as I usually go to TRS for my ranger questions but since this concerns a newer model I figured I'd ask you guys over here. I am very familiar with Rangers as...
