I'll be scrapping and videoing soon. TRUCK DOWN AGAIN (Be scrapping soon) - YouTube
Really? You gonna scrap that truck? Looks like she's worth saving. Appears to be way more money in than scrapping it out. Have you thought about parting it first?
what year and engine is that ranger?
what caused the computer to burn out?
what burned out last time?
My friend is a mechanic and may be able to point you in the direction of the real problem, electrical can be interesting
I have a 97 with 6-245 (4.0L) MFI engine and auto trans
4X4 Supercab that I just picked up this AM and I am parting out
Parting out 1997 97 Ford Ranger 4X4 Super Cab 4.0L engine auto trans
According to the Hollanders the ECM will interchange with >>
MAZDA B-4000 95-97 Elec Cont Unit (ECU); (RH Rr firewall), 4x2, AT, ID F77F-YB
MAZDA B-4000 95-97 Elec Cont Unit (ECU); (RH Rr firewall), 4x4, AT, ID F77F-YB
RANGER 97 Elec Cont Unit (ECU); (RH Rr firewall), 6-245 (4.0L), 4x2, Super cab, AT, Fed, ID F77F-YB
RANGER 97 Elec Cont Unit (ECU); (RH Rr firewall), 6-245 (4.0L), 4x4, AT, Fed, ID F77F-YB
If this will work for you I would be willing to ship Priority for $8.00
I don't think he means that he's scrapping the truck, but rather not doing anymore scrapping until the truck is back running, again.
Good luck with the Ranger...

Thanks i am going to replace the coil packs. This is a 4 with 8 plugs an 2 coil packs.
yep very familiar with that system if you are gonn a have it down you may be ahead to change all 8 plugs, you dont want a bad pkug shortening the life of new coils. the ones on the left side are a PITA but if you have a spark plug socket with the rubber to hold them in and a good u joint and extension they arnt to bad.
Oh, I see now. Had to go back and re watch the video. Sorry about that. Tell ya one thing. You can't go wrong with the 302! Minus the MPG of course. :( It'll be fun getting it in there, but I have seen it done. Good luck.Quote:

A friend of mine put a direct injection Perkins diesel in his Ranger and he loves it. It seems to be serving him well. He is a major motor head though.
