After driving 20-30 minutes I shut the truck off and it will start but then dies and wont start again for 40- to a hour
I have a similar problem. My engine shuts down after about five minutes..
Measuring the current into the distributor(ignition) reveals a jump in current from 3 to 40 amps.
The power lead is red on white and the ignition lead is yellow on black and goes into a connector under the dash where the ignition wire changes to white on black. Three different wiring diagrams give no clue to how this problem is caused.
Also, the starter is good for only a few turns after the engine warms up.

My 86 b 2000
I didn't know anybody even used carburetors after 1982. By that time, it was cheaper and easier to meet clean air standards with fuel injection, and if done right, fuel injection provides better performance anyway. You can tweak performance with different manifolds, improved exhaust piping and possibly a turbocharger. There may be a "high-performance" ROM chip for your engine computer; this permits a greater fuel delivery under acceleration conditions.
Note: some smaller engines used a single throttle body injector rather than one for each cylinder. Theoretically you could replace this with a carburetor, but modifying the engine controls to work correctly with it would be a nightmare.

I have a no start situation after replacing the
I have a funny feeling that you have the belt on wrong. I know, you said the marks line up, but a compression check is easy and just confirms everything. Failing that, could you have the plug wires on wrong...I'm wondering if spark is occurring on the compression stroke or the exhaust stroke, and all this could come back to if the cambelt is on right as well.
Bottom line; if you have spark, fuel and COMPRESSION, it'll run.

When I start up truck oil light is on when its
It seems the oil pump is weak. Do an oil and filter change now and every 3000-4000 miles useing only good quality oil.I would guess this engine has high miles.
If you want the light to stay out get a new high volume pump.But I would not worry about it.Just keep the oil and filter changed.

2002 ranger super cab. Why does alarm keep going off?
Hello. It seems your truck's key fob/remote either has a low battery and/or is 'wearing out'. The computer/alarm becomes 'confused' and can't decide if it should 'arm' or 'disarm'. This also causes slow to no operation of your vehicle's door locks. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.
