Hey guys, another thread about my ranger sucking, lol. This ones an ongoing problem BUT, only in the summer. I live here in New Mexico so it’s about 90degrees+ every single summer. Whelp I bought the truck back in August last year and it was still high 80’s. Everytime I’d run my a/c and drive the highway, I’d get off an exit and my truck would stop giving gas and gauges would start flipping out and the truck would completely stall, couldn’t even turn the steering wheel. As far as I was concerned the problem stopped in the winter, winter was below freezing everyday for months and my truck had no problems. Whelp it’s summer time again and here we are again, driving I-40 at 80mph, a/c running, and exiting off ramps and STALLING. My main concern is this will start before I get off the highway and my truck will stop giving gas but not completely stall going 75mph+ but it will slow down on its own and it gradually gets worse the more I’m driving my truck with the a/c and driving often in this heat. Any help here would be greatly appreciated, I can list everything I’ve replace in almost the last year and the problems I know of right now. truck has 147k miles.
