Re: Gas mileage question

Truck burns extra fuel until it is warmed up then it will be OK. Your engine is most efficient at normal engine temps

Re: engine coolant temperature location

Re: engine coolant temperature location

The sending unit for the gauge is under the oil filter, you get at it from under the truck. If your gauge doesn't move then check out the gauge first. The sending unit has nothing to do with the...

Re: i have some issues if any one wants to help

Still sounds like spark to me. Have you checked the timing belt to see if it is bad or the tensioner is bad?

Re: whats wrong with my ranger

I am unfamiliar with the systems of '85 but if it has a distributor you might be too far advance in timing. This would also show up as hard starting.

Re: Starting when below freezing issue

Is this the reading when the motor isn't running? If so then your meter isn't reading right. You should have 12,5 volt at the most.

Re: 97 2.3 heat fluctuations

Well if you are sure the radiator is full of coolant then this points to a bad water pump

Re: Timing Belt Issues

The cam tells the motor when you are on compression stroke not the crank. If the crank is on 0 degrees then it is in the right position. If the cam marks are lined up then it is in the right...
