I had the induction cleaning on my 01 2.5 at about 128k and I noticed an improvement in power and smoother idling. My mpg's were not improved. But for me it was worth the cost.

My 01 leaked very bad when it rained. It was the rear window seal. Never leaked again after re-sealing it. Something to consider. The repair shop had seen it several times on other Rangers.

Consider Lojack. I had it installed in my 2010 XLT after my 01 XL was stolen in Seattle area. It was never recovered. Guess I have trust issues after that.

Cleaned the Maf sensor on my '10 2.3. Easier than I thought. Noticed improved acceleration. I doubt the original owner ever cleaned it. Has 40k miles.

My 2010 Ford Ranger scheduled maintenance guide says the differential is sealed for life with synthetic fluid. No need to change fluid unless it leaks or is submerged in water.

2001 Ranger uses PATS key?

My ranger was stolen from a park and ride lot 20 miles north of Seattle. I wonder how hard it is to hotwire a ranger with pats. I have a feeling my rig didn't' have pats.
