I have a 2002 ford ranger with a 2.3L DOHC engine. The truck has around 139,000 miles. My problem is sometimes in the morning when i start it, it acts like it doesnt want to run...idles really strange, around 300 rpm. If i hit the gas, it brings idle up to normal and everything is good from then on. Another symtom i am having is when driving at 30-40 mph the truck surges alot. It does it until i pick up speed then i do not notice it anymore....but anytime i go around that speed i notice that. Sometimes when i start off from a stop light or whatever it seems like its not running on all cylinders for a split second then it takes off. I am lost on this issue. i dont want to try to guess and fix...i am on a very tight budget. Can anyone please help me out? Thanks alot!!
