    Advice on 2004 250xs

    Looking at a used Ranger with a 2004 250xs. I'm trying to research about the engine and am finding that it requires a minimum of 91 octane gas and premium plus oil. Any way to tell if the guy before me used these? Any red flags I should look for?

    Other than what you've mentioned, see the FAQ Section for the post: Checkout Recommendations for a Used Engine
