1998 Ford Ranger 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 110k miles
I don't know whether these two problems are related.. It happens after about 40 minutes of continuous driving.I get a loud noise that sounds similiar to a radiator that is bone dry and overheating. It seems to be coming from the air intake filter box. When I place my hand on the box, it is vibrating. I also have a terible vibration coming from the front end when this noise occurs. It feels like you are driving over rumble strips. Neither problem diminishes or increases when slowing down or speeding up. I also tried shifting gears out of drive into neutral with no change in the sound or vibration. I recently had new tires and wheels installed but was told that they are installed and balanced properly. I recently purchased the vehicle from the original owner and have had it only two weeks.
