Did you change the fuel hose in the tank when you changed the fuel pump. Internal leak on hose in tank,external leak on pressure line from tank, Bad pressure regulator, bad fuel pump. Take a piece of water hose about three feet long and stick it in fuel tank and hold it to your ear, have someone turn the key on, if you hear fuel squirting in tank, the hose is loose or cracked. Keep in mind that the fuel pump on runs for 2 seconds when you turn the key on without the engine running.

Do you have injector pulse durng initial cranking? you may have a bad cam shaft position sensor that "comes to life" when rpms are up. or an injector has a bad spray nozzle allowing fuel to flow into its cylinder,pulling the spark plugs and checking for any that may be "wet" or smell ''rich'' will help pin-point your problem.

91 ford ranger custom v6 3.0 it run great for about 20 mins. then it starts spitting n spuddring when u give it gas wat can be wrong with it ?

Check ignition module under throttle body. Fords have history with the module, on older engines getting hot, then causing the the spark to stop. This may be the case if the truck starts again only after the engine cools. If so, possible bad module.

My truck idling low

You replace alot of things but you should replace the EGR valve and the throttle positioning valve also. I would start with the EGR valve

Ranger fuel problem

There is a fuel cutoff switch on the passengerside floorboard, towards the right kick pannel, there will be a little red button on top of it, check to see if that is tripped, also when you turn the key to the on position listen to see if you hear the fuel pump prime up, just a short buzzing noise from the underside of the cab, if you dont hear it, that is a good indicator that your fuel pump maybe bad, i would also check the pressure at the fuel rail, chrome or black colored bar located near the fuel injectors.
