I have a 91 ranger XLT 2wd 5speed with the 3.0. The car was driving great. Stopped for lunch went back to start and as soon as I put it into 1st the engine died. Car has power and the engine wants to start but just won’t turn over.
I just moved to the Charleston, SC area and don’t have a mechanic or know of any honest ones around here. I had it towed to a local shop and after three days of sitting there the guy said he thinks it’s the distributor and has quoted me $1,100 to fix this to me seems insane considering I didn’t spend much more to buy the truck.
I’m not a mechanic, I don’t have tools or the space to work on the truck myself, otherwise I wouldn’t be posting this.
Does anyone have any recommendations on what the problem could be?
Is there anyone in the Charleston SC area that could help me out?
