Why does a 1996 Ford Ranger have 8 spark plugs if it's a 4 cylinder Will it burn gas like a regular 8 cylinder?

No it will not burn fuel like a V8. In fact just the opposite. Ford's theory on 2 plugs per cylinder is a more complete combustion with 2 plugs firing instead of 1. This is supposed to give better mileage and power. This engine is way underpowered for the Ranger, but does get good mileage. it has 2 plugs per cylander to get better ignition. now as it only has 4 and not 8 cylanders, it can only burn the fuel in 4 cylanders so no it will not burn fuel like an 8 cylander does
