Either that or clogged fuel filter.
For refernece, I use those cheap clear-plastic inline fuel filters in both my jalopies and they never last longer than one year, even though I don't run them much anymore.

In '88 the 2.3L Ranger was EFI, and the 2.0L 4 cyl. still used a carburetor.
This one is a 2.3L EFI, and yes the IAC was mounted to the air cleaner box with a hose going to the throttle body.
