- 1994 Ranger
I'm not saying it is, but my 1994 Mazda B4000 is basically a ranger clone, and it has sequential injection and EGR. You may be right, I just don't want you to waste your money.
Do you have California emissions? 1994 California Rangers had sequential injection and EGR. I hadnt heard of any 1994 Federal Rangers having such. But hey its a Ford, so they could went to sequential injection sometime during 1994 model year when they ran out of older parts.
Mine however has NO EGR. Thank goodness.
Too late on wasting my money. Its on its way, supposed to be here Friday. $30 so not too big of a gamble. I fully expect that it will throw same code for MAF out of range. But there is no way to know if that code is because of the the current 3.0L ECM and some MAF incompatibility. Or just a failing MAF. ECM was $30 and new MAF is $80. Try the cheapest guess first.
Like say it runs fine as is, just 11mpg which is crazy low but not unheard of on these. A failing or incompatible MAF would explain things.
Oh I was looking and those silly purge valves are like $40. The electrical connector is directly on end of the valve. There is a older Ford purge valve with two wires coming out of the valve and connector at end of the wires. Its $12.
What heck is difference, they obviously do same thing, but would ECM detect it being functional with the cheaper and probably older version spliced in? How does the ECM decide if purge valve is functional?
Frankly not sure which bodily orifice they pull some of these prices out of. They obviously have little to do with actual production costs.
