Dead Eye Dunc Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 That's used as the engine warning light. Take it up to 60-70 mph and see if it coughs/splutters. If it does, remove the fuel filter and before replacing, fill the new one with injector cleaner (the stuff in the little bottles from Halfords). Put any leftover in the tank. Run the truck for 5 mins and problem solved! Alternatively, you'll need to get it plugged in to a (Mazda) diagnostic machine. Rangers are fantastic trucks. I just sold mine and miss it already!
