I just finished replacing driver's valve cover gasket on a 2001 Ranger SOHC 4 liter V6 and had a leak when reconnecting fuel line to fuel rail. The O -ring
seal at the flange where they bolt together had deteriated. The Ford dealer doesn't list it and I couldn't find it on line anywhere. I visited a n Autozone store and they didn't have a selection of high pressure gas resistant O- rings but the guy said it looked a lot like the fuel injector gaskets for the Ranger..He went back and brought out a card of 4 O-rings for the injectors. They looked indentical so I bought it. I went home and installed one..and voila! no leakes. Hopefully its the same O- ring for the 4 cyl and 3.0 V6. Its Fel-Pro ES 70599 part at Autozone. ( about $6)
