Re: I'm Back Ladies!

Man. This forum sure doesn’t seem to be what it used to be. Few years ago when I was still a ranger owner, I got on everyday and conversed with guys daily. Now I’ve started 2 threads in 3 days and...

2002 2.3 Manual - $3100 Kentucky

I got this truck back in March, but have since upgraded to a full size. Only reason is work has permanently moved me to a branch that is over an hour away, and I wanted something newer and more...

Re: CEL, codes, high idle, ABS light

Well, no real updates to post. Only thing that might be of interest is that I surpassed 1500 miles today since post #9 when work started requiring me to drive to the other branch. She's still running...

Re: CEL, codes, high idle, ABS light

Mini Update:

The difference is close to astronomical. I feel like I have a brand new truck. It idles normal, it shifts perfectly, rpms aren't acting crazy like they were before. Granted, I've only...

Noted. Just called the shop and added this to the grocery list. A whopping $10 extra dollars haha. Truck should be ready this afternoon. I'll check back tonight with an update once I put a few miles...

Well some good news to report. Checked the tracking number on the new intake this morning, and it's sitting at the post office. I'll be able to pick it up in the morning. Also, it just so...

Re: CEL, codes, high idle, ABS light

Auto parts store closed at 6 tonight, so I thought I would dust off my frustration with my ultra gauge and give the ol' girl another chance. I talked to her a little bit, we sorted out our...

Re: CEL, codes, high idle, ABS light

It was, but that definitely wasn't the ac compressor. I could hear/see that happening. This noise seemed to be coming from under the intake area.

I changed the plugs and wires today. Fired it up and it idled fairly rough at first and there was a weird knock. The knock almost sounded like flicking an empty water bottle but it was...

Re: CEL, codes, high idle, ABS light

It's really funny and interesting that you say that. The shop told me that wherever the leak is, it's in the front of the intake. Is there any way you can get me a picture or diagram on where that...

Any help or remedy for my situations?

I know the intake has a leak in it. At least that's what the shop tells me. I replaced the intake gaskets, but that didn't do the trick. This is the only...

Sounds like you pushed the needle on too far. It doesn't need to be pushed all the way down. It could be rubbing the cluster face when it tries to move. Mine did that when I fixed my odometer gear....

Re: Intake Gasket Question

Cool. Thanks for the info, guys.
