Re: A/C Doesn't Run at idle
I'm having the same problem. Anytime I'm in idle the compressor shuts off, but as soon as I give it some gas the compressor kicks on. My father in law thinks it's a vacuum leak. Since it only does...

Re: Changing plugs and cables
Thanks for the info guys. I had previously bought a Bosch wireset because that's all they had, but I'm going to take it back and get either autolite or motocraft.

Re: New owner from FL

Re: reasonable offer for this ranger?
Way too much to me. If you're willing to travel a bit to pick one up I'd say check Tampa's craiglist. I've seen a ton of Rangers for sale up here on Craigslist for about the same price with nothing...

Re: PLEASE Help. Title Issue.
I just bought my Ranger and had this same problem. Basically the lady I bought it from had recently made a verbal agreement to sell the truck to her neighbor, then he backed out. She had already...
