Yep the ****ty *** oil pump went out Friday night I was doing 60 and the oil light came on then about 20-30 seconds later the engine died. I was on a 2 lane road at 3 a.m. so I could not just stop or pull over.

Time for a new motor in my 2004 Ford Ranger maybe 4.0 time?

I am not really mad because its a new begining. EVERYONE should invest in a oil pressure gauge! I know I am putting one on the new engine!

 

if the oil pump went out, cant ford take care of it? Or is ur warranty shot? Sorry to hear that its really seized

 

Warrenty is gone about 20,000 miles ago!

 

Isn't there someone on here that's trying to sell a full 4.0 set-up? You should talk to him.

 

I think so but I need a newer model 4.0

 

too old of a 4.0 David. He would want a 4.0 sohc.

what about a v8? i dunno if you want to do all that work to get it in but that would be sweet...

 

v8 would be pimpin andy. But the ranger is sortof like an overdone DD. It'd be fast though!
