Ive hit 110 so many times I lost count by now. once it gets to 95 the climb is slow lol
|
I have gotten it to 115mph multiple times , and i believe now that i have taken my air-brake plastic mudflaps off it could do 120, but I'm a little scared because the bfgs are only rated for 107mph... next oil change i will give it a shot haha
|
most ive done is 115, before i put a roof rack, not top speed is 104... prob ill take the back door one of this days and try again. not bad for a 4banger diesel :P
|
You should be able to do much better than 70 MPH.
You're due for a timing belt replacement if that hasn't been done. You should replace the spark plugs if you think they are original. |
183 mph is the fastest i have seen.
dont believe then look http://www.dragtimes.com/Ford-Ranger-Timeslip-3244.html |

|
"stock" 4 banger and top speed dont belong in the same sentence

damn thats impressive!! i got 15 in stockers too and i dont think that mine would do 100 even if i left it in 4th. but then again i dont like to push the gerbals under the hood too much. they tend to get pissed off when i do that :) |
I hit 95 (on GPS) all the time on the interstate here................ (par for ATL highways)
held a consistant 85 with trailer, A/C, trailer and 2 race bikes coming back from Tally last fall. |
my 98 5 speed would get up to 98 flat road but it took atleast 2 min to go from 93 to 98 and 98 is just absolute max unless theirs a hill involved! the highest i ever got was 109 down a big bridge... but thats with very small tires an a 14 inch rim...
|
I hit 94 on the interstate on Monday. Rides so much better with the new ball joints.
|
Haha, I actually just calculated the theoretical top speed of my truck for a homework problem in my fluids class. Based on a Cd of 0.40 (looked it up somewhere) and hitting the full 112 hp, I got just over 108 mph. Now I just need a place to test it :drive:

Ok well hopefully when I get a 4.10 to put in it will be a little better. How about plugs? What if the plugs in the truck are original with 130,000 on them? Think it might do better when I replace them this winter break?

I drive a 1997 ford ranger. 2wd with 4.10 gears. I have 30" tires and i topped out at 117
|
I had a 1999 ranger 2.5L 5speed single cab 2wd. Cold air intake, shorty header with a downpipe beside the transmission. Loud af. Had a better fuel pump, bigger injectors, minor head work done. Was never an issue for my truck to see 125mph.
