No idle at start up
Hello everyone first post been lurking for a while anyways i came across a 89 ranger stx no power steering ac no frills its got a 2.3 and is a 4 speed with overdrive. She has a new battery and alternator good compression and the motor runs like a sewing machine.
I am having a problem when cranking over itll start and turn once or twice then die so i have to feather the gas peddle like one would do on a old carburated car once i have her warmed up she runs fine but now she is having a high idle all the time when i come to a stop with the clutch pushed in, also when coming to a quick stop shell act like she wants to die.
also after idling for to or three minutes shell just shut off any help appreciated just thinking it might be the fuel pump or the iac

timing belt looks good not sure if replaced doubt it though the rear shocks were oem
will be changing plugs wires i think it has a iac or so napa says it does
wasnt thinking it was the pump changed fuel filter and cleaned throttle body with throtle body intake cleaner thought it might be the coil packs but trying to see if there is a way to check them before i buy

Appreciate it i know that i dont have it located on my air in take box, the one they sell at napa is like 90 dollars do they place them on the throttle body?
Also also my ranger was made in december of 89 when i bought shocks they wanted to know what month it was built in, did they make changes to put them in the next model year production

cleaned the iac she still starts bad but idles loneger also had to tape up abare wire and found a intake hose cut and performed surgery on that sea foamed the truck runs better put a voltage meter on the iac electrical plug and itspulling twelve volts but there is still a lot of carbon in the valve is there any thing that will cut the carbon better than throttle body cleaner appreciate guys

The starting and idling is under control decided to buy a scanner. I was getting codes for parts that werent even on the truck. So i change the computer and evrything runs fine it previously had a 95 computer in there causing a maf sensor code my truck doesnt have one. on to the present everything had been running good no cel or anything until i left class this morning. I pulled out pretty quick and it was wet causing my tires to spin then all of a suddden it started jerking and no acceleration.
No biggie thought clutch was slipping getting ready to replace but then cel comes one and i run a 18r code and a 98r code
so what is a spout circuit open failure 18r
and is that causing test failure hard fault 98r
