{"product":{"id":11142675038550,"title":"Nostrum Ford Ranger 2.3 EcoBoost ESSIM Ethanol Content Sensor Kit","body_html":"\u003ch2\u003eSummary\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you run ethanol in a 2.3 EcoBoost Ranger, the blend in the tank is never quite the number on the pump. It shifts with season, supplier and whatever was left in the tank before, and a calibration that assumes a fixed blend is guessing. The Nostrum ESSIM kit ends the guesswork: the Ethanol Sensor Signal Interface Module reads ethanol content and fuel temperature at the engine in real time and turns that into 0-5V analog, PWM and CAN signals that can all be configured individually and used at once. This is the vehicle-specific version, so it comes with a genuine Continental ethanol sensor on a stainless bracket made for the truck, the low pressure fuel lines to and from the sensor, pre-terminated harness adapters and instructions written for this application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRanger 2.3 EcoBoost owners running E85 or ethanol blends who want the tune to follow the fuel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds already fitted with a high flow HPFP or injectors, where fuel quality is now the variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners who want ethanol content logged inside their own tuning suite alongside everything else\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners who want to check the blend on a phone before deciding what map to run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat The Module Reads And Sends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEthanol content and fuel temperature are the core readings, taken at the engine rather than in the tank, so the value reflects what is actually being burned. Fuel pressure monitoring is possible as well, with a compatible pressure sensor added separately. The three output types run simultaneously, which means a standalone gauge can take the analog signal while the tuning suite takes CAN. For quick checks there is Bluetooth and the Nostrum iOS app, which is the easiest way to see the blend before you fill up or after a top-up with petrol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Nostrum High Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: ethanol content sensing module kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: L187-1955\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle Application: Ford Ranger 2.3 EcoBoost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReadings: ethanol content, fuel temperature, and fuel pressure with a compatible sensor added\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutputs: 0-5V analog, PWM and CAN, individually configurable and usable at the same time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApp: Bluetooth monitoring through the Nostrum iOS app\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded Items: pre-terminated ESSIM unit, Continental ethanol sensor on a stainless bracket, vehicle-specific low pressure fuel lines, pre-terminated harness adapters, hardware, installation instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment type: vehicle-specific kit, described by Nostrum as plug-and-play\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment And Setup Checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis kit is the Ford Ranger 2.3 EcoBoost version.
