Im gonna open my mouth and say that this is because its normal with turbo Di engines, i may be banned forever after saying this.:lipssealed:

I listen to this Ford mechanic sometimes, here he speaks about Ecoboost engines and fuel in oil, he has specifically said in the past that 2.3 Ranger fuel in oil is a normal thing.

Almost exact same thing happened to me but i did stay with Ford, bought a 21 Explorer with same engine, 5k miles and have not seen the same issue, very happy so far.

Now your gonna have everybody pulling their spark plugs out LOL

I had this happen on my 21 Explorer and figured out it was a piece of ice that was in the bottom of the door. I was about to take it to the dealer but instead started playing with the door trying to figure out what part was not closing right.

same here, i also experience it on my new 21 Explorer 2.3 10 spd but only when its cold shifting for the first time in the day.

I got rid of mine after pulling an extra quart out of my oil change and my garage reeked of gasoline, then i was getting an abnormal turbo lag but i aslo did not use the flat bed and a truck was just not practical for me, I bought a 21 Explorer with the same 2.3 10spd, i have 4k miles on it and...

Hey, i traded in my Ranger for a 21 Explorer with the 2.3 l 10 spd, i get the same issue once in a while i have 3000 miles on mine and some other Explorer owners say they have the same smell. Everything looks good though.

I have a Borla because of their high quality and very nice exhaust tone, the tone is very important to me as most don't have an acoustic tune, the Borla seems very refined to me, if Corsa made an exhaust for the Ranger, I would get it in a heartbeat.

Or does one even know if they change the old oil filter? It would be easy to just skip that part, especially on the Ranger

Since that is a common problem and i always have had a fuel smell, I thought maybe some of it is fuel but it would be hard to say since I suspect they put too much oil in there in the first place.

I might go that route!

Im ok going under, it's easy since I put on larger tires and the Fox 2.0 leveling kit. I also like to use Amsoil on all my vehicles.

No, I put the same one back on I did not want to wait, I didn't trust what the dealer was putting in there, im ordering a new one to have ready for the next oil change.

Yes, it always has but I never really saw a rise on my dip stick, it was always at the top hole, now the level is at the end of the hash mark I don't know if its normal but the dealer always charged me for 7 full quarts also the label they put on my windshield said 5w20, I confronted them about...

Yes

I used a nut extractor, the threads were fine

Yes it's a bolt, I edited my post, everything looks good, no leaks ect.

Just did my own oil change after taking to the dealer for oil changes the past 3 times, the process was easier than expected but the oil pan bolt was already stripped and the oil filter cover clips were broke, never again will I bring it to the dealer, I also removed 7 quarts of oil! Im not sure...
