ignition

My 88 ranger is no longer starting, ill try to keep this short. I don't really have any mechanic experience so please bear with me. A few months ago it began having problems starting. It would turn over but not start, but if i kept trying then after a few minutes it would, sometimes it would...

I have an 89 Bronco II. When I turn it over, the rear antilock light stays dimly lit (Like it's only part way engaged) There's nothing wrong with my brakes, and I used to be able to flick the ignition again really quickly and it would go out. Now it takes a couple minutes to get it off, if it...

So i've been chasing an eletrical problem for a couple months, and i've about lost it. to preface, I have an 89 Ranger, 2.3 manual DIS. Somewhere around 260,000 miles, original engine and transmission. Starting around three months ago, my tach quit working. Not a big deal, i've driven the...

I posted a while ago about issues I was having with my '88 Ranger, in which the previous owner swapped a 4.0 from a 92' Explorer into. Apparently all the issues stemmed from him using the original 2.9 harness for the computer and some of the sensors, and splicing everything into the 4.0. I don't...

I was driving my truck with the windows down. I parked and cut the engine. I realized I hadn't rolled my windows up. I got to turn on my accessories, to roll the windows up. Nothing happens. I go to start the truck and the ignition lock is totally slack. There is no resistance. I turned the key...

Okay so here is the story about a demon truck that has been altered so far from stock that I have absolutely no idea where to start. My main issue: Random periods of NO power. Nothing to any gauges/lights/radio, nothing to starter, won't crank, nothing. My most recent experience was driving...

I have just bought my second bronco 2 with a 2.9 liter v6 the guy has replaced the old 2.9 with a new one and he has tried to get spark but there is none so after buying it and getting it in my shop I have started to look after that problem and I have had to replace the starter scyloniod to get...

Hello all, I am at the end of my rope on this and looking for help. I have a 1994 ranger 2.3 2wd that has a no start, no click. I have replaced the solenoid, ignition switch, and the clutch position switch. The only thing I know is left is the ignition lock cylinder. Is it possible this could be...

Went to put in accel coil pack in my 2001 ranger and low and behold I feel it didn't fit. I looked it up on line and it was stated that I got the right one. The plug wires don't "click" into place when installed. Anyone else ran into this issue before?

OK, heres the story. 1994 2.3l 5spd, no AC with califoirnia emissions. It's been trowing engine codes and not firing from the primary coil. I ran the ICM test and it came back with a back crank position sensor. So I replaced the crank position censor AND the Cam position censor (California...

so I have a '94 Ranger, 2.3l stick, California. the crank sensor has gone bad. I see that there are two choices with, and without a harness, but the sensor itself looks completely different from one another. which one am i supposed to use? I'm so confused.

So it will sit and idle fine then stumble and doesn't seem to want catch its self, if you rev it up it usually goes away, but always comes back I'm thinking idle air control valve what do you guys think? Also my clutch feels stiff but doesn't disengage fully, when I got it there was no brake...

Hello. I was hoping someone could help me. I've got a 1994 Mazda B4000. It had a terrible lower intake manifold gasket leak and I decided to perform the fix. When I went to dis-connect the "camshaft position sensor/camshaft synchronizer" connector, I broke the connection on the sensor and...

I just replaced the alternator today because it tested bad (diode). The truck will not crank without using my jump starter. I also had the battery checked out and it tested good. I seem to have a problem with my ignition not working correctly. When I put in the key sometimes it is not straight...

Hello, I drive a 1998 Ford Ranger XLT 3.0 v6, manual with 236k miles. replaced the head gasket, timing chain, and cracked timing chain cover and spark plugs 2 months ago(about 5k miles ago) Aside from my slave cylinder and clutch beginning to go bad I haven't had any problems since, until my...

93 3.0 This has me stumped. I have fresh ignition everything. Plugs, wires, coil, distributor cap etc. It doesnt always do it but if i keep it at steady throttle around 1500-1600 RPMs it acts like it has a misfire. Any more or any less throttle and its fine. Ive sea foamed it and that worked but...

I have a '88 B2 with the 2.9 EFI V6. It was my daily driver; I stopped driving it for a few weeks and it now refuses to start. The engine will turn over and try to catch. I put a fuel pressure gauge on the rail under the hood. I can hear a fuel pump running and the pressure holds stead at...

Hey peeps, I just took the cover of the steering column, and i don't see the ignition harness. I'm tryin to install a Remote Starter. I unpluged every connector there and the truck still starts, and i don't see anymore wires, what am i missing? Can someone point me in the right direction in...

Hello folks. I just bought some doors and a fender from a man who gave me the motivation to go with the Duraspark conversion... Well I am not sure where to find the Duraspark II Ignition Module... Does anyone on here have one for sale? I would be happy to buy that and any other Duraspark parts...

96 2.3 manual Every single time I attempt to crank the ranger (with just the key), the ignition fuse blows, and it does not crank at all. I followed the ignition wire (red/blue) from the ignition switch. I have continuity with the bottom terminal (black/heavier wire) of the fender solenoid. I...
