Re: Road Noise
Thanks but, they are new. I'm thinking that the noise is coming from the wheel wells, that I can see through the door jams. I'm thinking about closing those openings.

Re: What did you do to your ranger today thread IV
Why would Ford make us take the complete cover and steel back plate off just to get to the flasher? That is what my beef was all about.

Re: No heat

Re: Jerks and dies when warming up
I still think it is your fuel system. Have the system pressure tested and change your fuel filter. Try spraying your throttle body out with a can of throttle body cleaner while it is running. Keep it...
