The guage on my 99 Ranger doesn't move when I start the engine. After
driving a short distance,it registers normal.
Where is the sensor located,so I can disconnect it to install a
pressure guage and check it when the engine is first started? Thanks

Lets go the extra mile.......

on the 3.0 its on the front on pass side
on the 4.0 its on the driver side under a/c compressor bracket
no clue where it is on the 4 cylinders, probably around oil filter

NEXT TIME, HOWBOUT ALL THE INFO WE CAN USE, LIKE ENGINE SIZE

He's been posting since February on this and he ain't going to divulge
what he has. No wonder he can't find it.

I thought we'd given him pretty good advice, too...
