Ford Ranger

I found a vacuum leak on my Ranger. It's amazing the difference between the Ranger and the SVX. The Ranger has about 3 hose while the SVX has about a dozen. It was easy to find and replace, not like the SVX. That's what makes an american vehicle different from a Japanese one

Re: Ford Ranger

It's a 2001 with the flare sides.

If it is the cologne motor it is about as old and tech advanced as the small block ford as well. I have a 2010 for my work truck and of course my Tas has a cologne 2.8i in it and would gladly make use of the 415lbs engine as what it is best at, a boat anchor. Now if you look under the hood of an american truck that was designed after the late 80s you won't find any hoses. Just a cheap plastic cover.
