    Missing when hot

    Im trying to narrow this down. It sound like a miss on one of the plugs. You can here it when its cold and when it gets hot its a Dog. Taking off from a stop sigh you can really feel the sluggyness and missing. I put Bosch platinum 4 plugs in. I understand they may not be the best for ford now...

    Iv seen a few posting on the airdam from a ranger bolted on a explorer. Will this bolt on or is there some Mods that must be done. What year and model of ranger would this airdam come from thaats used for the mod. I like the look but just don't fully understand it.

    93' Still pings/clatters with new plugs and wires (Motorcraft)

    Id give the slick a try 1st. For 8 buck and 11 gal of gas you can't go wrong. the lower bolt are not a walk in the park. there a few you may nott even reach. Make sure you don't put to much gas with it. you want to mix it heavy.

    93' Still pings/clatters with new plugs and wires (Motorcraft)

    Carbon Build up is the most comon problen . run a bottle of Slick 50® High Mileage Fuel System Formula. Mine was pinging and i changed and cleaned every sensor out. Pinging went away after adding this stuff to my fuel. I would say its carbon since it only does it after warming up.

    STILL ____ING PINGING!!!!

    SynPower looks like it mainly deals with injectors. If the pinging is caused by carbon I don't think SynPower will cut it. I never had pinging till i went to 93 oct. the only way I got rid of it was Dropping to a lower oct and running a bottle of slick 50 through. Note it was the one for high...

    STILL ____ING PINGING!!!!

    Make sure its a good quality cleaner that cleans the combustion chamber as well as the Injectors. Most of the Injector / fuel treatments won't clean the carbon out.

    It has to be a very small Vacuum type hoes and it helps to somewhat Round the end of the hose to keep from catching on andy flanges on the way down. If the dip stick will make it then we know a small tube will. (SMALL)

    Fuel pump question

    Check your system for any codes. Even know the CEL is not on when the truck is running, it is on during the starting cycle. and this is when your having the problem. Maybe they'll be a code stored that could shed some light on this and save you some cash.
