Does your 4-cylinder Ranger use the coil packs? If so .........
Had a similar problem with a Windstar and one tower of a coil pack go bad. As I recall, with the coil packs they fire 1 & 4 and 2 & 3. You could switch the wires for 2 & 3 on the coil pack and if # 2 starts missing on warm up - there's your problem.

Any errors when you scan the codes??
