Anyone know if fuel regulator is the same on an 85 and 86

I need a new fuel regulator for my 86 B2. Anyone know if the regulator is the same on a 1985 ranger? Id love not to spend the $100 the parts store wants.

youre already sitting in front of the computer, get on your favorite parts store website and look up part numbers for each... :icon_thumby:

I doubt it, since an 85 would have a carb or a TBI setup (on the 2.3L) but the 86 B2 would be EFI.


I have one that is used but was good when I pulled the engine out. I'll sell it cheap. Make me an offer and then $10 shipped anywhere in the continental US.

Well the engine in my 85 is a 2.9 efi so im guessing if it is a 2.9 then itd have to have the same fuel regulator right?

Well the engine in my 85 is a 2.9 efi

you sure about that? AFAIK the 2.9 didnt get used till 86...

83-84-85 came stock with a 2.8 or four cyl. You wont find a regulator for a 85 ranger. Try ebay or amazon shop around.

Yeah thats what i figured I am guessing the original owner blew the engine or something and used a 2.9 to replace it. I saw that the fuel regulator fit the broncos from 86-90 so I will just pop the one off my parts truck.
