What's the Firing Order for a 2002 Ford Ranger 3.0?
#1
Can someone help clarify the correct firing order for a 2002 Ford Ranger with a 3.0 engine? I've seen mixed info online.

The firing order for the 2002 Ford Ranger 3.0 is 1-4-2-5-3-6. Just double-checked it from an official Ford service manual.

Yep, Rachel's got it right. Also, make sure to check the condition of your spark plugs and wires while you're at it!

Another quick tip: Always attach the spark plug wires to the proper spark plugs according to the firing order, or you'll have misfires and your Ranger will run poorly. Happened to a friend once!

I remember switching up wires 5 and 3 by accident on my old Ranger, and boy was that a rough start! Always good to double-check!

Just a funky story: One time, there was an old folklore that said if your car misfires, a spirit is messing with it. Had to explain to an old lady it was just the firing order.

Remember to keep a diagram on hand in your garage as a quick-check tool, it always helps, especially during those late-night garage sessions.
