* In-tank: For most modern Ford Rangers (generally from the mid-1990s onward), the fuel pump is located *inside* the fuel tank. This is the most common location. To access it, you'll need to drop the fuel tank.
* Engine Bay (older models): On some *older* Ford Rangers, the fuel pump might be located in the engine bay, usually near the fuel filter. This is less common for newer models.
To find the precise location for YOUR Ford Ranger:
1. Check your owner's manual: This is the best resource. It will have diagrams showing the location of major components, including the fuel pump.
2. Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton repair manual specific to your year and model Ranger will provide detailed instructions and diagrams.
3. Use an online parts diagram: Many auto parts websites (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) allow you to select your vehicle's year, make, and model to view parts diagrams. Look for the fuel system diagram.
Without knowing the year of your Ford Ranger, it's impossible to give a definitive answer.
