So I bought a 92 ranger 2.4 last year and it wouldn’t start I got it for cheap so I figured I could fix it. I was originally told it needed an ECM.
I replaced the ecm. ($140) it was supposed to be pre programmed.
Didn’t start so I started to do a checklist. Fuel pressure was a few pounds under what it should of been so I replaced it. Still wouldn’t start. So I changed plugs (all 8) and wires, cap and rotor TPS and checked the injectors which all seem to be working properly. From what I can tell the timing is on although I was told by someone it looked a couple teeth off. It’s kind of difficult to tell for me if it’s on or not. So after I’ve sunk over $500 in it I am reluctant to sink more money in it.
Any advice on what could still be the issue?
I’m very tempted to just let it sit until I’m able to think about doing a full motor swap. I’m very frustrated and since it’s sitting in my driveway it’s becoming an eye sore. Any help would be greatly appreciated
