The mixture is electronically controlled by the computer via a throttle position sensor (TPS) tha is mounted somewhere near the carburetor throat. The sensor may be faulty and needs to be replaced.
There is no 2.8 Liter in a 1989 Ford Ranger. The Ranger V6is a 2.9 Liter and the distributor rotates clockwise.
where can i find a vacuum line diagram for 1989 ford 2.9 liter engine
The 2.3 liter in the Ford Ranger from 1989 to 1997 and the 2.5 liter from 1998 to 2001 use ( 8 ) spark plugs
but a chilton manual for it.
On your 1989 Ford Ranger : The vacuum modulator valve is on the passenger side of the A4LD automatic transmission ( it might be behind a heat shield )
No ( according to the Gates website , they make timing belts etcetera ) the 2.3 liter four cylinder engine in a 1989 Ford Ranger ( is NOT an interference engine )
That would depend on which model year of Ford Ranger in North America : I BELIEVE this is correct : 2.0 liter ( 1983 to 1988 ) 2.3 liter ( 1989 to 1997 ) 2.5 liter ( 1998 to 2001 ) 2.3 liter DOHC ( available in 2001 , 2002 and newer )
If this is in a Ford Ranger : ( 1989 to 1997 is a 2.3 liter four cylinder engine ) ( 1998 to 2001 is a 2.5 liter four cylinder engine )
The 2.3 liter 4 cylinder is 140 cubic inches The 2.9 liter V6 engine is 177 cubic inches
It depends on the engine that you have. Here's a list of the HP ratings for 89-92 Ranger engines. 2.3 liter 4-cylinder: 98 hp 2.9 liter Cologne V6: 140 hp 3.0 liter Vulcan V6 (introduced for 1991): 145 hp 4.0 liter Cologne V6: 160 hp
It should be on the intake manifold, under the throttle body.
It should be bolted to an inner fender or maybe the frame surrounding the radiator , close to the battery in the engine compartment
