@@reggeckmann3993 over here that's worth weight in gold solid frame zero rust and he's a grown 40 yr old man being a whiney crybaby over a 800$ truck that probably only needs a couple grand to get right I only paid $5k for my ranger but had to put new tires new control arms new shocks now I'm sitting at 7000 into it but she runs great
I have 3.0 V6 b3000 4x4 1999 120k miles and Ive been doing great in 6"- 1 foot of snow but the ice got me today slide on the corner right into a snowbank even in 4x4 perhaps need spare underneath for the weight but I had bed full of tools and went right into that snow bank luckily I back myself out and went right home zero damage at all thank god lol but -35 degrees she struggled a bit but still cranked right up so did my moms Honda
@@devilmonkey Sure. Even with rubber cement, plug can still leak again, maybe not now but anytime in the future. I've replaced what felt like thousands of tires for years, and seen so many plugs leaking new or old. People can do what ever they want. Just saying that patches are the correct way.
Another opportunity for you to do an impressive engine swap. Maybe a coyote or an ecoboost i don't know..but definitely don't put the stock 4 liter back in
It sounded quite poor on compression, but perhaps should have coughed on some cylinder(s) with compression left. Maybe there is water in the fuel system?
the v6 3.0 + 4.0 do die it's the 4 banger that will not die. i had a 3.0 that i blew a headgasket still drove it for 5 years and then one day cracked the head but it still got home. the next day it started right up but with a bad miss and you could see the crack clear as day
Patch the trailer tyre from the inside and keep it as a spare. Zero reluctance to put a new on a trailer, yet drives around for months if not years on bald truck tyres 😜
Don't tell me your going to do a hellcat swap on the Ranger 😂💪 Good luck God bless
That engine didn't die, it was murdered!
yea
Needs a 4cam or a coyote swap... possibly a 2.3 or 2.7 ecoboost swap> Lightweight powerful and efficient? GOod video Dave.
Why do that when its just a beater that would be a waste of time
@@subarulegacy4203 is it a beater? Looks pretty ok to me. He has resources. Idk Bea fun experiment

You can patch that trailer tire from the inside. We had one of our tires done that way. It's far more reliable than a plug.
The patch is the correct way to do it. A plug is basically supposed to be a temporary fix so you can drive it to a shop and get it patched.
@@PanameraTurboSEHybrid I've had like 5 plugs in a tire, just rubber cement the plug and stick it in

If it was hydro locked the first thing you should of done was drain the oil to see if water was in it
just in time for lunch ❤️ you could say you got that truck....dirt cheap.
It more than likely hydrolocked and skipped timing, I've seen it before.

Someone swapped the V6 Raptor Engine in one and it’s insanely fast, just search Ecoboost swapped Ranger….
The channel is “Fat Fender Garage.”
Hi Dave,
Want another project?
I'm trying to find a good home for my 1976 big block standard w200 powerwagon.
It sounded quite poor on compression, but perhaps should have coughed on some cylinder(s) with compression left. Maybe there is water in the fuel system?
the v6 3.0 + 4.0 do die it's the 4 banger that will not die. i had a 3.0 that i blew a headgasket still drove it for 5 years and then one day cracked the head but it still got home. the next day it started right up but with a bad miss and you could see the crack clear as day
sounds like it has a few bent valves
Bent valves for sure, maybe a compression check
Compression test? Dump oil down in the cylinders?
I just commented same but seems like a bent valve I would scope it
I have faith, you will get it
excited too see these ranger videos
Not a bad looking truck. Throw a used engine in and sell it after winter.
Yeah that engines done, not only water got in, but a bunch of dirt which would scratch the cylinder walls up
Bent valves,pull cylinder head liquid check
the only one that noticed that this tank was empty no fuel
How about spritzing a bit of oil into cylinders. See if some compression comes back?😊
What happened to the engine install your told us about in the last two videos????????
I have a 92 Ranger w a 4 liter v6 w 300k on it 🤓🇺🇸👍
It’s a tremor with the Sony explode system no backseat I have a black one sitting in my backyard rotted frame
You have to use actual starting fluid, brake fluid no longer works well as starting fluid.
Does the ranger have gas cause the meter didn't go up when you turned the key to start position! 🤔
What's going on with the mini? How about a update on your progress with the mini 🤔?
Change the oil? An coolant?
You know a guys exited when he can't catch his breath explaining stuff about his truck haha
I will suggest you to participate to the danger ranger races from Cleetus McFarland….
I would do an oiled compression test and scope before you go swapping motors haha but you are the motor swap king I suppose 🤷♂️
is that a mini in the background in the beginning?
yes it is
Nice truck
You’re at a junkyard and no wrecked rangers to pick a motor out of?!?
Or comparable motor?
When kids switch from playing GTA to driving real vehicles...
Trevor has a eco boost from the mustang
Looks like it's time to scratch around the junk yard and find a replacement engine.
This pickup needs a new engine for sure.
Patch the trailer tyre from the inside and keep it as a spare.

Use your WRX as your daily driver
they drilled the hole so they can come back for 2nds lol
4.6 upgrade
GTR Drivetrain Swap. Simple! lol
I guess its Hellcat swap time!
An sr20 swap would fix that!
Throw a 302 in there
Dude, what year was this Ranger?
It is an 05 or 06
@@Junkyard_Dave looks like an 05 to me.
I will bet the timing chain stretched and jumped a couple teeth
I know what’s wrong with it… it ain’t got no gas in it 😅 lol junk yard LQ9 swap it! Or a coyote swap it!
It aint got no gas in it
tdi swap the ranger Dave
Sounds like it’s got mechanical damage
put the Durango engine in it and take it to SEMA in 2030
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Sounds like it needs gas lol
You'll have a coyote in it by Xmas.
V8 swap
