Ford Forum - Enthusiast Forums for Ford Owners

Hello first time poster here. I signed onto the forum as I am in a bit of a roadblock. I am timing my 2.3 ford ranger. been a one year- two year process. Long story short, I left all last summer, wasn't really home this winter, and just got back a week ago. The ranger has been sitting, until the old man decided to take a crack at it. Well he did alright, just didn't time it. Now I am finally getting it tackled, and found out I am missing 2 very special bolts that I can't seem to find anywhere online. The first bolt is the 5.5 that holds the CPS, I'll say we lost one of those. And second one lost is the 8mm that holds the CPS Bracket onto the engine. There is no way I am going to half ass this without the bolts, It sits loose and I know it'll break those magnets, again, If I cant track those bolts. I am going to call some junkyards but those are 50-100 miles away, for 2 small bolts, and i gotta pull off everything like I am trying to time the damn thing at the junkyard and I would rather not. If you can help me to find or have any, you would save my ass. Thank you!!!
