crank but no start

Hey all, I'm at a loss. Swapped my known good 4.0 OHV out of my crashed 2000 4x4 into a newly acquired 2002 FX4 which had a blown head gasket on its 4.0 SOHC (but ran *just* well enough to get it on and off a trailer). Both manuals, swapped PCM appropriately, using the 2002 body side connector...

Still don’t have spark after checking all fuses and grounds, replacing dis module, battery, coil packs, crankshaft positioning sensor and spark plugs…. Not sure what else to do with it. Any ideas?

I checked my fuel pressure with a new gauge I just bought but after using it my truck won't start. It ran fine before so im wondering if I bumped something or if there is some sort of safety device that engaged preventing it from starting. When I turn the key I can hear the fuel pump engage...

Okay, so I probably need to go back and say what all has happened so far. We've replaced all the plugs, and wires. Someone unplugged the mafs and it took someone to not just recognize it but then find where it went. We replaced both coil packs. And after getting everything mixed up somehow we...

I have an 86 bronco 2 with the 4.0 ranger engine, it will start sometimes and other times it wont. I have changed about everything and I believe the problem lies in the ignition possibly. I was told that sometimes there is a problem where if you turn the key too far the car will not start just...

Hello! I have recently started working on a 1994 Ford Ranger. I know it has been sitting for a while, likely upwards of four years, but no way to truly determine. As of right now it is a crank-no-start engine. Prefacing this by saying this is not only my first pre-OBDII car I have worked on, but...

97 Ranger 4.0 (Manual Transmission) Previously i had a bad bendix wear down the teeth on the flywheel, replaced the starter but have been having to “Bump Start” it the last couple months. Ive been able to push it myself and start it with it just barely rolling with no problems. Now it won’t...

Hi, I stopped at a stop sign and when I pushed the accelerator the engine died. Turning the ignition results in the engine turning over but it will not start. It sounded like fuel was not getting to the engine. I knew that the truck had never really been worked on when I bought it. It has...

I have a 1992 Ford Ranger 2.9l and the other day I was driving it and all of a sudden it died.

Hey everyone, brand new to actually posting something on here but I could really use some advice. I have a 99 ford ranger 3.0 5spd 4x4 with 243XXX, daily driven. The other day I went to start the truck and it just cranks. Fuel pump primes fuel pressure is 50psi at the schrader, finally the...

Hey guys, so I left town for a few weeks, truck was running great, and I came back and now it won't start! First thing I did when I got back was charge the battery and top off the oil the night before work, but in the morning it would crank but not start. Had power in the cab, starter was...

I have a 91 ranger 2.3 with a 5spd, great shape but that's beside the point. So I recently decided to try selling this truck, and being a responsible owner I decided to finally scan my intermittant check engine light. Like an idiot I did this (out of necessity) on the side of the road, it...

I just replaced the cylinder heads on my 87 Ranger 2.9L and now I am having some issues. This is my daily driver so I'd like to get this resolved as soon as I can. During reassembly of my engine, it took forever to get the engine started as I was having issues getting the distributor to the...
