Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 1998 - Valve Covers Don't Seem To Be Leaking On The Outside

My '98 B3000 has an oil leak. There is some oil up high on bell housing. So a buddy and I thought it might be the oil pressure sending unit. I replaced it. And still seems to be leaking.

Maybe valve covers? I was thinking rear main until we saw it on the bell housing. Valve covers don't seem to be leaking on the outside. Do they leak worse on the inside of the V?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2011 F250 - 285/75/17 Fit Without Modification Or Rubbing?

I have a 2011 6.7L F-250 with the stock 17" rims and need new tires. Would 285/75/17's will fit without modification or rubbing?

The stock tires were 265/70/17 and were too small. I have 285/65/18's on there now without rubbing, but it is close. Going back to the 17" rim with a taller tire makes me a little nervous, as I can't check them before purchasing.

I do not want to have any rubbing or have to do any modifications (lift, spacers, etc...). I would like to keep the vehicle stock.

Gen 2 Prius :: Headlight Modification To LED?

I'm also interested in converting to LEDs for my headlights, if there's an easy way to do it. I burn through a set of headlamps in about a year or less, partly because I run the headlights as running lights all the time, day and night.

I just changed my Oil, added a FRAM filter and bought some good Quakerstate High Mileage and my truck runs good. However, I noticed that my Check Oil light is constantly on. I also recently changed my Oil Sender, and I wonder if that has got something to do with it.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: One Hub Locked In 4X4

Hello. I never did this before but could you lock one hub in 2wd and leave the other unlocked. Also can you leave one hub locked while in 4wd? I was thinking if you have one hub locked would all the power would go to that wheel? Or will this do damage?
Thanks

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: Code 157 For MAF Sensor

So here is what I got. Code 157 maf sensor below minimum voltage. Here is what the truck does. When the MAF is plugged in and I step on it, the truck surges and when it drops below 1k rpm it dies but I can start it back up. If I hold the throttle at 1k it stays alive. When I drive with the MAF unplugged it runs better no surging but it still dies. Here is what I have done. Reset codes no change, put new MAF in no change. I have traced all 4 MAF wires checked continuity from inside of plug to inside of plug.

All wires checked out good. No cuts breaks or anything. I have checked my battery, starter, and alternator ad all check out fine. I read that someone said if the corresponding transistor in the PCM took a dumb then it would cause not enough voltage to get to the plug because the transistor would dump the voltage from the battery leading to the MAF. I thought about running a direct power source from the battery to the voltage side of the MAF with a switch in the truck to just see if that would solve the issue but I don't know if that is possible or smart.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: Blinkers Would Only Flash Once

Ok first I am not super-mechanically inclined but i'm pretty smart and a fast learner, lol. That said I have a 1999 Ford Ranger and two nights ago first one blinker stopped working and then an hour later the other one stopped. What I mean by "stopped" is they weren't turning on at all.

Ok so, the flasher lights are all working when turned on. I went to the auto parts store and they said I needed a new flasher. I bought it but they weren't sure which one to replace. Well there were only 3 that size in the box under the hood so I used the process of illumination. Except the new one didn't exactly fit the first one so i tried the two others. Well when I think I had it in the right one.

The Blinkers would only flash once and then that was it. The guy at the store said the flasher may be faulty but he did not have another one so he gave me my money back. I noticed on the way home that the blinkers would still flash once even with the old flasher in place. The 4 way flashers still work normally so all bulbs are working.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: Converter Won't Lock Up

I have a 95 ranger with an overdrive auto. If you put your foot in it the converter wont lock up, you can get the tack past redline, but if you let off and the rpms drop below 2000, it locks up and holds until you apply the accelerator to much and it kicks it back out. Also the speedometer bounces and may not read right, abs light is sometimes on and it won't idle below 1000, I've checked for vacuum leaks already.
