I have a 1985 Ranger that I bought new and the exhaust pipe on it was sooty from day 1. The truck (2.3L) now has 198,000 miles on it. It was the first year for EFI and I had a lot of problems with it the first 3-4 years. I have replaced timing belt twice, ignition module twice,distributor once(the pickup assembly literally disintegrated). I had problems with the engine smothering down and quitting, it would restart and run after sitting for about 15 min. This turned out to be wore out in-tank fuel pump,also the float for the guage had a big crack in it which explained way the gas guage quit workingat 40,00 mi. The body has held up exceptionally well. It used to get 32mpg. I only use it around the farm now, maybe when I retire I will have time to rebuild it. The biggest mistake I made in purchasing this truck was that it was the first year production of the EFI system. Diagnosing emission control problems on it is a whole other long story.
