Hi, I have a 99 ranger and when im at a stop and accelerate, the truck takes a bit to kick then she just wants to take off, then when she hits 150 kph its bogs out and will just continue at 150, could you please help me out, I rather have an idea and do it myself then a someone take a look at it and make a couple extra bucks. Thanks.

Lack of acceleration, chugging, hesitating, bogging, misfiring etc. Could be caused by one of the following below:

Oxygen sensor.
Catalytic converter.
Fuel injectors dirty/sticking.
Mass airflow sensor/Airflow meter.
Throttle position sensor.
Crankshaft position sensor
Knock sensor
Manifold absolute pressure sensor.
EGR Valve
Fuel pressure regulator leaking or defective fuel pump.
False air leakage.
Fuel contamination.
Foul/defective spark plugs.
Open spark plug wires.
Ignition coil/Coil packs defective.
Incorrect ignition timing.
Cap and rotor.

Note:If it doesn't apply disregard it.
