Q: Change time on 1994 Ford Ranger Radio?
I purchased a used 1994 Ford Ranger 4x4. It has the original Ford radio in it, but no documentation. I have ( and several friends) have tried to change the time on the radio, to no avail. Anyone know how or have the original owners manual that they could copy for me?
A: Press and hold the "clock" button until it starts blinking (I think). Then, two of the preset buttons have a little minus (-) mark on them. The left one changes the hour...the right one changes the minute. After you get it to the right time, press the "clock" button again.
You can find a manual on ebay.

I have a 1994 ford-Ranger 2.3 liter manual5-speed with transmission problems. Can any body help me find the right people to talk to about this problem and if it is relyable information about my truck.
A: I had a 90 Ranger and the clutch went at about 70,000. I also had an issue with the truck "bucking" as a I tried to accelerate. I was told the computer boards on these were defective. Try to see if it was recalled for anything you can check the DOT site for your state or the Fed's.
Q: What kind of shocks should I buy for my 1994 Ford Ranger?
My Ranger Doesn't ride too nice and the shocks on it creak and groan and are about 60000 miles old, I know its time to replace them but I want to know what kind of shocks will give my Ranger the smoothest ride. I'm not looking for hardcore offroad shocks. Any suggestions would be nice, it is 4wd too if that helps.
A: Monroes would give you a good ride without harshness. I
use Bilstein shocks on my trucks, they are expensive.
Q: where is oxygen sensor located on 1994 ford ranger?
also why does check engine light come on and engine is running good on 1994 ford ranger
A: Well, it would depend on the engine. If its a 4 cylinder, then there would be one, just forward of the catylitic converter. If a V-6, then one on each V side, before the cat. If the check engine light comes on, would be a good idea to find out why it would come on, before buying parts for it. Could be as simple as a fuel cap is off, or bad. Get the codes read first before buying parts needlessly. Or it could be more of a repair, as say a tuneup or something. Hope this helped some, good luck.

Q: How do I check and add transmission fluid in a 1994 ford ranger with a manual transmission?
A: manual trans usually have two large (18MM) diameter bolts in the side of the case, usually one is just above the other, slightly offset. The upper one is the fill, the lower one is the drain. With the vehicle level,Remove the upper bolt, if fluid tribbles out, the level is good. BTW, it's a pain to add fluid, it takes a funnel and hose inserted in the fill hole. You cannot overfill.

Q: transmission problem in a 1994 ford Ranger?
About three years ago I had a leak fixed (transmission seal) on my Ford Ranger five speed transmission. I had the work done during the summer, and had no problems until winter came. When the temperature outside is below about 45 degrees, the transmission will not go into any gear until the truck warms up completely to its normal operating temperature. It works fine once it is warmed up. The shop that did the work is out of business. I have a theory that they put the wrong weight transmission fluid in when they fixed the seal. Is this possible?
I should add that this a manual transmission, 5 speed overdrive, and Ive had no problems with it other than the refusing to go into gear when cold.
A: This is possible. The early Fords used a type F fluid. It is thicker then the new stuff, Dex tron 3.
Thy stopped using type F a while back but you can still find it for the older Fords. If thy did put it in, yes it will make the trans not work till it gets hot.
About the only thing you can do is get it flushed and have a trans shop put in Dex ton 3
