Hello
The dash MUST be removed to access the heater core, there is no way around this, sorry I don't build them just try to help repair them.

From Haynes Repair Manual #36071, Ford Ranger Pickups 1993 - 2005: (1) Disarm the airbag system; (2) allow the cooling system to completely cool down; (3) using a thick cloth for protection, turn the radiator filler cap to the first stop; (4) step back and let the pressure release; (5) once the pressure has been released, completely drain the cooling system; (6) working within the engine compartment, loosen the clamps on the heater hoses at the engine compartment side of the firewall, twist the hoses and carefully sepseparate them from the heater core tubes; (7) plug or cap the heater core tubes to prevent coolant from spilling into the passenger compartment when the heater core is removed; (8) place a plastic sheet on the floor of the vehicle to prevent stains if the coolant spills; (9) remove the instrument panel; (10) remove the PCM heat sink and ground strap; (11) remove the heater plenum chamber; (12) separate the heater core from the heater plenum chamber; (13) installation is the reverse of the removal with the following additions; (a) fill the cooling system; (b) run the engine, check for leaks and test the heater.

aND HOW CAN WE HELP? It is best tohave a shop replace your brake lines due to the need to bleedbleed he air from the brake system. You really should have everything inspected, all brake lines..It's worth the cost.

GO BY AUTO ZONE OR ADVANCE AUTO PARTS BUY A HAYNES REPAIR MANUAL.

If you look at the bottom between the shoes you will see the self adjuster you will have to turn it in by hand to draw the brake shoes in and once you get the drum over the shoes you need to adjust them back out until they almost touch the drum. Hope this helps

Warning:

• Retighten lug nuts to specification at 500 miles (800 km). Failure to retighten lug nuts at milages specified could allow the wheel to come off while the vehicle is in motion, possibly causing loss of vehicle control or collision.

1. Lower vehicle and tighten lug nuts to 135 Nm (13.8 kgf-cm, 100 ft. lbs.) .
2. Install the wheel cover, if equipped.
3. Before driving the vehicle, pump the brake pedal several times to restore normal brake pedal travel.

If you drive the car quite gently all the time (ie don't really rev the engine high before changing gear), then when you do give it some acceleration it burns all the deposits in the piston chamber. All diesels will do this. Alex.

if the stick has 2 holes, 1 at the bottom and then another 1 back up the shaft, the fluid needs to be centered on the second hole.Some dip sticks vary, and you will probably need to look at owners manual for each individual vehicle.

May be a sensor in the cylinder that needs to be replaced

You should have the V6. If so the firing order should be 1-4-2-5-3-6 if you have a distributor. If you have a coil pack which you should then see image.

corrosion or a loose connection most cases corrosion builds up behind the fuse box but need to be taken off to check

u sure that positive batt is hooked to wire goin to starter and negative to ground--the relay is a switch and reverse currant can fryit--also any messup can burn alternator too
