Why is my Ford Ranger running so slow?
Why is my Ford Ranger running so slow?
It’s throwing 2 codes and both are P0401 aka EGR insufficient flow. Would this cause the truck to be as slow as it is? No, this is related to exhaust gas recirculation system. It could be caused by carbon build up in the EGR passage, EGR valve, etc. It would not cause these symptoms.
What kind of engine does a Ford Ranger have?
Sometimes at random times at 2000 rpms or so. Spend over $3000 trying to fix it… truck bucks and cuts out when giving gas usually in 4th to overdrive. Also happened on a 2000 automatic at 200000 miles…. I have a 2000 ford ranger 3.0 flex fuel. The motor was just rebuilt. The engine runs rough. There are no CEL on.

What’s the average speed of a Ford Ranger?
It barely goes up hills and only goes maybe 20-25 mph when floored and it takes almost five minutes just to get it going that fast. I noticed last night after work that the fuel pump doesn’t seem to be turning on anymore, but I thought a vehicle couldn’t start with a dead fuel pump?

Engine infrequently races in idle, sometimes up to 3,000 rpm. So many Ford Ranger owners complain of this exact issue, Ford should have done a recall repair for the problem.
