I'm far from a genius on computer controlled vehicles, but I think I've had enough Rangers to maybe lend a hand. Where yours is a swap vehicle, it could make things a little more difficult. I hate throwing random stuff on a vehicle in an attempt to fix it, so here's what I would do.
1) Ensure all grounds and connections are clean and tight. Whether bolt on connections or clip connectors.
2) Buy a $30 Innova 3145 Ford OBD1 scanner, pull codes and run test. I can't believe that nobody has suggested this. It will save a ton of time and at least point you in some guided direction on what is functioning or not.
3) 93-95 Rangers are NOTORIOUS for having the ground wire on the EEC and Fuel pump relay plugs under the hood come loose and causing intermittent no start issues. With your symptoms, this sounds highly suspect.
Try those 3 things before throwing any additional parts at it and you might be surprised at the outcome and it will help us get you heading in the right direction to get you and the truck back in the game.
