Scheduled Maintenance for Your 1993 Ford Ranger

What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 1993 Ford Ranger?

Here’s Why 1993 Ford Ranger Scheduled Maintenance Matters

Take care of your Ford Ranger and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, your Ranger has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Ranger maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1993 Ford Ranger!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Ford themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Ranger's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 1993 Ford Ranger problems.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Ford Ranger Running Newer, Longer

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1993 Ford Ranger and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Ranger. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Could your 1993 Ford Ranger be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Ford Ranger battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Ford Ranger won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 1993 Ford Ranger running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1993 Ranger. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1993 Ford Ranger? We can help with that, too!

Maintaining your Ford Ranger steering and suspension system can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide the appropriate Ford Ranger steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Components within your Ford Ranger's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Ford Ranger services, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Ford Ranger’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too.

Questions About 1993 Ford Ranger Maintenance

Take an active role in maintaining your 1993 Ford Ranger. Get answers to common Ford Ranger maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • When should I have Ford Ranger alignment checked? You know your Ford Ranger better than anyone else, so you’ll know if something doesn’t feel right while driving. Have your alignment checked (and adjusted if necessary) as soon as you notice a pulling steering wheel to prevent suspension damage or uneven tire wear.
  • When should I use high mileage oil in my Ford Ranger? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Ford Ranger engines.
  •  Why are my Ford dashboard lights on? Because there might be a problem under the hood. Those warning lights are there for a reason! As soon as you notice that one’s illuminated, take your Ford Ranger to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
