Ford Ranger Engine Problems

Problems in the 1999-2000 Ranger

There have been many problems reported over the years in the Ranger range. The 1999 Ranger had a problem with wiring in the engine block and some cases of short circuit in the heater were reported. Though the 2000 Ford Ranger engine was good, however, sometimes it would return no or less throttle between 30-70 mph.

Problems in the 2001-2003 Ranger

The 2001 version had many reports of engine noise like a rattle caused in the primary timing chain rattle. The 2002 engine had reports of being cut off when accelerating quickly, for example when trying to overtake another truck. It would start to cut off like it is starving for fuel. The Ford Ranger 2003 engine had very few cases where the car would haggle when put in third of fourth gear.

How to Fix Ford Ranger Engine Problems?

The engine management light turning on means either one or more of the sensors has stopped working or there is something wrong somewhere. The management light could be reset by pulling of both the battery terminals and holding them together for roughly about ten to fifteen minutes. That will erase the memory of car ECU and return it to the default state. But if it doesn't turn of then take your car to your local garage and see an expert.
