That can be the ECT sensor(5 volt, for computer) or the Temp SENDER(12volt, for temp gauge in dash)
Pull out the rest of it, if it has a Cone shaped tip its ETC sensor
If it has a cylinder shaped tip its a sender
Sender may also only have 1 wire connector, red/white stripe wire
ECT sensor always had 2 wire
Their positions on the lower intake are interchangeable, the devices are NOT
You can see the other one in your first picture on the left of lower intake
No, I haven't come across a How-to on 4.0l OHV re-install
Try Googling: 1998 Ford ranger 4.0l lower intake removal and reinstall
The 1995 to 2000 Ranger used the 4.0l OHV engines(with new computer wiring), 2001 and up used the 4.0l SOHC so quite different
