1988 ford ranger, rich condition, cylinder 6 misfire fuel pressure regulator	Keith	1-11-08
I have a 1988 ford ranger, 2.9l. I have corrected my cylinder 6 misfire code with a good tune up. The truck is still running very fuel rich, When you pull the vacuum line off of the pressure regulator, i would assume, that you are not suppose to smell fuel, because of it being just a vacuum line? I would guess I have a bad pressure regulator!

I am having similar problems, if you find out anything please get back to me... 1988 Ford Ranger 2.9 Engine. Truck runs fine until you get between 25 and 35 and then it bogs down. If you floor it, it goes, but that is hard to do with the police behind you while you are trying to maintain a steady speed. Gas gauge does not work. I am told that there is a low pressure pump in the gas tank. Could this be the problem, or the main fuel pump Any suggestions would be a great help. I reset the inertia switch breaker under the carpet, No Luck. HELPPPPPP... Thanks GMRockin@hotmail.com

You are absolutely correct. When the engine is cooler, you'll probably find liquid gasoline in the vacuum line, but this is an indicator that the diaphragm inside the fuel pressure regulator has started to leak and the regulator needs to be replaced.
