Hi, i just got this old 1979 Ford F150 Ranger and am trying to get familiar with the older generation of engine components, such as a durable spark box. Is there any picture or blueprint that can show me every component in the engine bay area? Any info is greatly appreciated.

Sure, you didn't include an engine size so here is the 2.3 engine components and their location. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.

Oh sorry, the engine size is a 351 modified ford v8. Do you have anything on that?

1979 Ford Ranger did not come with this engine? If this is a full-size truck, please start a new thread.
