I just have a question I have a 2000 Ford ranger and I've put my fifth power steering pump and no matter what I do it screams loud and I can't get it to go away any opinions anybody thanks in advance

[@hustleyourknowledge]

So I take it this video really helpful for 97 below, but it is good basic mechanic knowledge

As a young female mechanic with my first 5 speed ranger edge it made my day to come across this vid. Thank you you e been a breathe of fresh air!

[@Charlies_Corner]

I own a 2001 Ranger with the 2.5 I’ve had it since 124,000 and it’s got 207,000 miles on it now and I’ve never had an issue with it. I have the manual transmission, I keep mine maintained. I’ve got an 89 Ranger with 307,000 never had an issue with it either..key is routine maintenance.

I got 4 things to do on my 03' Ranger. 1. Front main seal 2. Leaf spring shackle/bushing 3. Engine mounts 4. Power steering pump leak. And it has 453k miles on it.

As a mechanic myself everything she did and said is true, and is the exact same thing I would check. Great video 👍

Please video all of your projects for us Ranger owners. You’re the best.

[@douglassmith8950]

Original owner of a 1994 Ranger 4x4, 4.0L--has little over 240,000 miles as of July 2021. Basically, rebuilding my Ranger piece by piece with the cost of new cars/trucks today. Already replaced the power steering gear box/seals, and master brake cylinder. The shop did those repairs. Manual transmission holding up--replace the clutch/slave cylinder regularly. This summer just finished doing a major tune-up. Alternator and starter replaced several years ago. BUT now have lots of maintenance projects to do this year--water pump, brakes, bearings, ball joints--that need replacement. AND videos like this are worth their weight in gold! :)

My 2001 Ford Ranger Edge 4x4 is still going strong with 377,000+ miles. The 4.0 L engine has been a work horse with no issues. Bought it used in 2003. Had to change out a starter and alternator but other than that it's been good to go. The Michigan winters have done a number on the old boy after all these years, but ill keep it going till he doesn't want to go any longer. Great informative Video. Love the content.:-)

I wish I could find a garage that cared this much when I pay for a pre-purchase inspection! Great information.

[@full---movie]

Things I had issues with on my high mileage manual '07 4.0 Ranger: 1. Plastic thermostat housing began leaking like crazy. Replaced with aftermarket diecast aluminum one. 2. Both rear axle seals began leaking like crazy. Had to pull axle rods to replace. 3. Front diiferential pinion seal began leaking like crazy. Fairly easy fix with the right tools. Other things ive replaced: spark plugs, fuel injectors, fuel pump, starter, door handles (they snapped off in the cold. replaced with steel ones), coil packs and cables, starter. I have also fully deleted the A/C system and use a shorter serpentine belt. Also note, the starters on these trucks on the 4x4 manual models are kind of a nightmare to change. You have to bring the starter out through the engine bay by disconnecting the driveshaft U-joint to make it squeeze through. It will fit through the bottom of the truck past the frame but if you try to do it the wrong way you could get it jammed in there and you will really be screaming.

[@kevalb94]

Incredible video! So thorough and such good explanation and walk-through of easy to fix yet important maintenance work. I just bought an 09 Ranger with 87k miles and I know I'm going to have to replace the fluids. Now I know exactly where to look and what to expect. Sue does such a good job!!

[@alsaysamone4148]

Sure glad you mentioned the dreaded "cam synchronizer" chriping. I replaced new belts, tensioner and idler. The chirping still ALIVE! A few years back, I replace new clutch and rebuilt the transmission. I might have some dirty spot or have some fork sticking out, it is a 4X4. Got tired of the dreaded chirping, removed the the drive lines and T-case, Y pipe and off the tranny. I decided to give a new clutch kit, installed and got everything back together. THE FRICKING CHIRPING still ALIVE! Last weekend, decided to replace the leaky driver side vale cover. Interesting, the INTAKE had to come off. What a great time to check on the "CAM SYNCRONIZER", it was a paint to get it off (5.5mm or 7/32" at Home Depot). Squirted some oil between the pointer and let the oil sipped down the engine. THE CHIRPING IS DEAD! THANK A MILLION, SUE!

[@michaelbandeko3519]

I am an older guy and a mechanic also. That is one of the first things I do when I buy a used vehicle. Change all the fluids, that way I have a positive starting point from which to work.

Runs smooth and clean now but thanks to your info I will check fuel filter, O2 wiring and also never did PVC either. Thanks for pointers

[@theflyingclutchco.5918]

I bought a 2003 Ranger FX4 with a 4.0L SOHC and a manual transmission with 209k a little over two years ago. So far I have replaced the door stops on the driver's side rear half-door, the tie rod ends, oil pan, thermostat housing, transfer case shift motor, and shocks. It now has 225k miles on it and is going strong. It's always had a bit of a rattle when going down the road and has always made a random tick noise when it is revved up (doesn't speed up with the RPM increase). Getting new front wheel bearings this week. I have to say that I am surprised at how few issues it has given me, and I don't treat it gently. As a note, the 4.0 motor has been known to be prone to timing chain guide failures. My own truck had bits of a timing chain cassette in the oil pan, presumably from a previous failure. They are not easy to replace either, and can cause critical engine failure.

[@richardkey4289]

I toss in a new fuel filter every year or more often, cheap insurance for keeping engine happy. Fuel is full of garbage, silt, anything

[@wpiofm]

But I doubt if it was dirty. Modern gas stations do superb filtering.

I own a 1995 4.0 v6 ford ranger, she stopped counting at 146k about 9 years ago when my grandpa bought her, she’s my daily driver now and it’s still going real well

[@sharonoddlyenough]

I have owned a 2000 Mazda B4000 with a manual transmission for 4 years, and it has almost 470k km on it. I have replaced the clutch (master cylinder, slave cylinder, friction plate, and lines), all brake lines, serpentine belt and belt tension arm, coil pack, and fuel filler spout, front drive shaft, heater control valve, and shocks all around. I've had all of the fluids replaced at least once, and it gets regular oil changes. 6 months a year, I have put on about 1000 km per week, it's my daily driver, and it's rarely let me down.

[@BroadcastBuddy]

My ranger is still young, 1997 with only 201000 miles. Runs like it just rolled off the dealer lot though. Doesn't burn oil, shifts smooth, no knocks or other bad sounds. 2.3 5 speed manual.

We own a 2011 Ranger XLT super cab 4X4 with a 4.0 V6 A/T, 3.55 LSD with only 34K miles. I change the oil every 4K miles with Mobile 1 full synthetic. I also change the front and rear differential, transfer case and transmission fluid every 30K miles. I’m a maintenance freak. I guess that’s why I get at least 250K miles from all 3 of our Ranger’s. Our current Ranger is our 4th one. If you maintain your Ranger regularly, they will serve you well

[@RealityTrailers]

I've owned my 2000 Ranger, 4 cylinder (with 8 spark plugs), 5 speed XLT truck since 2003 which now has over 233k miles. As the 3rd owner, I paid $3,500 for it, no interest or fees, a friend sold it to me after he repossessed it from a 6 ft tall guy who wrecked it and wrecked some of the interrior, which is why it pulls to the right slightly. I've replaced the radiator, the starter and other things twice and replaced once everything else but the motor. Two front end and one rear jobs. Started rusting a few years ago. Having no truck payments for over 20 years has greatly helped me to save more American toilet paper aka fiat aka US dollars, which I've utilized for retirement. So, Thanks Ford!

[@MichaelMcAlexander]

'04 Ranger Edge bought last year with 112K. Had some work done on the back end with brakes; had the O2 sensors replaced, and she runs great now at 118K. Still has a very slow oil leak, soon to be remedied. So many gaskets...

[@MichaelMcAlexander]

Had a power steering flush, transmission flush, intake cleaning, and lubrication of joints. Scheduled for oil pan gasket and flywheel gasket replacements; should run like new after these last maintenance oversights from previous owners. Very excited!

[@tonymaiettasr.7340]

Thanks Sue for a great video. Just bought a 2000 Ranger XLT extended cab 2WD with 78k miles. Mostly driven in California so no Chicago rust. I plan on following this video step by step to get my Ranger in good mechanical shape. It runs good but I want to change what needs changing and get it in routine maintenance mode. Want to Fluid Film the underside as now it in Chicago area an I want to keep it rust free.Thanks again.

[@maxcinta5760]

There are a few of us old-timers who have heard of running kerosene, or diesel fuel through a high mileage engine to clean out all the old contaminants throughout the block. Is this a safe option? Did I say drain the engine oil first?

[@Agnemons]

The real danger with moisture in the brake fluid is, under hard braking, the moisture can turn to steam and you have no brakes and yet when they cool down the brakes are fine. I have had it happen to me and a friend of mine peeled 4 tires off the rims coming down off a ski field because of that.

[@dalebennett8169]

Excellent Job

[@8632tony]

I have a 2004 Ranger Edge I bought new. It has 33,000 miles on it. I'm retired and don't go very many places very often. Every 3 or 4 weeks to the grocery store or doctor appointment, etc. I put about 200-250 miles on it a year. I had the fuel pump replaced last year when it left me stranded. Sway bar links were shot and clunking, so I replaced them myself last year, too. With only 33,000 miles, I was surprised to find the ball joints squeaking and clunking. I bought new upper control arms with new ball joints and bushings and new lower ball joints. I haven't put them on yet. I'll replace the brake pads, too, when I do that job since they are original and getting a little thin. I'm 70 years old and really not eager to jack it up and crawl under it, but the fuel pump set me back almost $800 (including the tow truck,) so I'll have to do that job myself when I get psyched up to do it. Wasn't too happy about the fuel pump and suspension parts being worn out on such a low mileage vehicle, but it is what it is. Otherwise I'm still happy with the truck. I recommend other Ranger owners to check the drains at the bottoms of the doors for blockage. I heard sloshing and checked and the drains were clogged, trapping a couple gallons of water in the doors. I was finding the battery was weak from sitting so long, so I put a 20 watt solar panel in the bed hooked to a small controller and plugged into my cigarette lighter. I hung the controller on the back of the seat so I can see it from the kitchen window. If I see a green light, the battery is fully charged. No more dead battery and haven't had to replace it in six years.

[@smarte.r.1450]

Top notch video ma’am thank you

[@fredflintstone4715]

What's wrong with having the original plug wires? My 98 has the original wires, and with 330K miles on it, they still 'spec' good, and it still runs like new.

[@robertdavis3433]

I have a 2000 ranger. Runs well. Some front suspension parts are worn out. I'll get to it. All fluids in the truck have been changed out. Good truck and video. From Sacramento

[@kkman30kVw]

Really good video. Only thing to add would be cost of some other repairs if needed. This is important because replacing a Ranger throw out bearing requires dropping the transmission, replacing the valve cover gasket requires removing the intake manifold. It would useful to find out if other brands or models have the same design flaws that Ford Ranger seems to have.

[@seismojones]

I have a 2001 XLT 4.0L that I drove off the lot brand new 21 years ago. She has 330K miles and still purrs like a kitten. Believe it or not, I've never done a full flush of any fluids. I attribute my good fortune to having a 50 mile commute each way of mostly highway miles while it was my daily driver (it's more my weekend truck now). But you can't get this far without some problems. Here's what I've done. Fuel Pump @ 327K miles Replaced battery terminals Replaced thermostat housing AC compressor Mirror switch Control arms Blower motor resistor Tailgate door handle Replaced headlight assemblies and replaced the dim halogens with nice bright LEDs. Also the usual spark plugs, wires, fuel filter, etc. To do: Instrument cluster lights Driver side window motor Valve cover gaskets Fix rain leak (probably back glass) A humming noise started recently once I get past 30mph or so. I'm guessing wheel bearings but haven't put it on the jacks yet.

[@volvo850rex]

Brake fluid change based on time vs mileage.3-4 yrs

[@calebs.8776]

Don't forget the oil pressure switch leak and heater core coolant bypass valve leak, both extremely common

[@bluegizmo1983]

I've got a 2001 Ranger EDGE 4x4 with the 3.0L and it's currently got over 230,000 miles on it. The only major issues I've had is at around 210,000 it started to develop a misfire at idle that only occurred after the engine warmed up. Turned out to be valve recession in the cylinder head on the driver side, so I installed two brand new heads. Now it's developed a bad oil leak from the rear main seal, so I'll be pulling the transmission soon to fix that.

[@cbsdracster6494]

Bought-new 185k mile 2003 FX4 OR here. When looking at the brakes, I'd recommend looking at not only the rubber brake lines but also the metal ones. My originals corroded at the fitting on top of the rear diff. Luckily it let go on the driveway. The short rear e-brake cable also rusted where it rubbed on the frame. After brakes, shocks, and a front suspension rebuild, I should start calling it the 1A Auto Mobile. Rear springs are next to try correcting the Ranger Lean. 👍

I have a ‘98 2.5L 5 speed bought used in 2003 with 62k on it. It has 215,000 on it now. Changed the oil (rotella 15w-40) every 3k Changed the transmission oil every 30k with Mercon Changed the differential oil twice now Changed timing and serpentine belt Changed spark plugs and wires (this was hard) Ball joints Brake pads, drums brakes The only thing of significance that failed was the alternator but I was able to limp it home driving in a rpm band where it worked (thank god for manual tranny) I think it has a vacumn line issue because when I , AC blows through the windshield vents….dont feel like dealing with it The cab leaks in the rain.

[@FordRangerClassics]

These are very strong trucks, even when you do everything you can to kill them it seems. Ive almost never pulled a part from anything that had less than 200k at the time of death. Mine has always made it home. Its been slammed into everything you can think of, pushed and pulled out, and ot just never stops. Even got rammed into from behind going uphill by a 94 Toyota land cruiser when i was in reverse. A little driving and the manual transmission worked out the details and it has never been looked at since (about 15k miles ago).
