I know this is off topic, but I am having trouble getting an answer. When do I need to change the timing belt in my 2002 Ranger. It doesn't say in the manual.

 

what engine?

 

well i looked up all 3 engine (2.5/2.3,3.0,4.0) and nottathing. so i guess never. lol. most cars say 60k or so. id go 75k. just make sure your not an interference motor. if u are and it goes up the piston will hit valves. hope this helps david

 

Its the 4.0 v6. Its weird that they didn't say anything in the manual. I think I'm going to call a dealership and see what they say. I've got 60k on it right now.

 

The rangers don`t have timing belts. They have timing chains. No need to worry about it. They "should" last the lifetime of the truck.
