Ranger died while driving.
Hello I have 2002 ranger edge 3.0 216k miles. I've been having a sputtery engine at idle and a weird jerking/sputter on first startup when I tap on the gas. I was going about 30 mph then slowing down to turn. All the sudden I lost power steering and power. The engine completely cut off. The ranger started right back up. What could this be?

After it started right back up did it have the same jerking / sputter? did it die any more?
Sounds like possible fuel related issue. Plugged filter or weak fuel pump. |
I've pinpointed EXACTLY when it hiccups. If I'm cruising and I accelerate like pushing the pedal half way down it hiccups one or twice. Still does it right after it died. But it hasn't died since. Noticed that after driving then stopping at a light the rpms drops to like 550-600 then goes back to normal after few seconds

My truck finally threw some codes the iat one. Can be ignored

Hopefully Ron chimes in. He is much better at deciphering codes and issues related to them!

Good news!!!! Spark plug change and no more jerk
|
Great!! Thanks or the update
