MIL Eliminators
Where can you get MIL eliminators for a 2006 ford ranger fx4 with a 4.0? Been looking online and seen several of them but wasn't sure if each vehicle had different ones.

"MIL eliminator" is usually a by-pass used when CATs are are removed, so its not really the right name for them
MIL, malfunction indicator light, AKA CEL, check engine light, comes on when computer has seen a problem and sets a code, ANY PROBLEM, not just O2 issue Yes, if they say they will work for narrow band(regular) Ford O2 sensors, then they will work on 1983-2011 Ranger Not sure how well they work, but that wouldn't be Ranger/computer issue, it would be a modified O2 sensor issue |

No I don't, maybe someone else will
But if eliminating CATs for farm use why would you care that the CEL/MIL was on? That code shouldn't effect performance You can get a $15 OBD2 bluetooth reader and clear any codes as needed or to see if other codes, besides rear O2 codes, has come up |

"Spark plug non-foulers" ????
I don't know what those are but put in proper O2 sensors, they need to be changed every 100k miles or 12 years which ever comes first The popping is from a misfire not the Cats When a cylinder misfires none of the gasoline or air is burned, it gets dumped into exhaust manifold and the next FIRING cylinder's HOT exhaust ignites it and "pop", a back fire in the exhaust system So poor running issues may have been from clogged exhaust, but not now, if Cats and muffler are clear Rich running can be caused by old O2 sensors, they show a FALSE LEAN so computer adds more fuel than needed 2006 with bad Cats usually means the engine has had problems for a few YEARS, burning oil is the worst for Cats, kills them pretty quick Could be bad fuel pressure regulator(FPR) in the gas tank, pump can generate 90psi fuel pressure, you need 55psi, FPR sets that pressure, but long shot on this one Clean MAF sensor, once a year Get the OBD2 reader and see what it tells you |
