"how high....?"

How high do you have to lift the 2.3L out of a '93 Ranger to change motor mounts?? I am not a mechanic,but can't afford one either!! Would I be taking on too much?

Re: What does DTC 334 "ACTUALLY" mean???

Already pulled EGR off and cleaned what i could. I don't believe I can just squirt something into there,so how can I lube that shaft/piston,or whatever it is in there?
