Original owner of 2001 Ford Ranger XLT, 2WD, 3.0LV6 automatic transmission, 2-door with foldaway jump seats. Vehicle has 202,000 miles and is in need of some servicing. Many new parts and recent service. I have done most of the tune up, oil change, brakes, exhaust, and general repair myself, but things seem to be piling up and I no longer have the desire to repair the truck myself, or pay to get it fixed. I will do my best to completely describe any/all defects. If there are any questions, or you would like to see the truck, please contact me. The good: New spark plugs and wires. New coil pack Recent cam position sensor New front lower ball joints New front upper control arms with ball joints Entire new rear leaf spring suspension Brakes recently done, new rotors on the front New exhaust (intermediate pipe, muffler & tailpipe - not catalytic converter) Recent front shocks Recent emergency brake repair Brand new battery (installed today) New rear brake line Bedliner in good condition Truck is very clean and has always been reliable Service records from recent shop repairs Transmission rebuilt at 100K miles The bad: Although rear brake line has been replaced, brakes are still soft and other lines appear rusted. Bleed valve on left rear drum broken. It is drivable, but pedal does go almost to the floor. May want to consider tow if driving home far. Truck appears to be going through coolant, need to top off every now and then Probably an oil leak at valve cover causes engine smoke on occasion Truck runs very smoothly, but has hesitated on occasion. New cam sensor, plugs/wires, coil pack appears to have fixed it. Positive battery cable needs new connector at battery Fender bender has caused front grill crack and minor bumper damage
