Hi all, I have been trying to get this ranger fixed for months now. Here is the problems and what I have done and checked on it.
Oh this is a 1989 ranger, 2.3l 4 speed. It's DIS system with no cam sensor.
I have checked and replaced the fuel pump, cleaned the fuel lines, replaced the fuel filter, replaced the injectors and o rings, cleaned the fuel rail. I have spark on all 8 wires and plugs. I have replaced the timing belt, it was bad. The crank sensor was replaced since I was right there with the belt. I have checked cleaned and verified all the ground wires. I am getting 40+ psi at the fuel rail. I am finding no bad or broken wires. I can start this truck with ether or gas strait down the throttle body. I have chked and replaced if needed the relays, the inertia switch is working. I have tried to start it with out the MAP plugged in, still no change.
Before I had ever touched this truck, a so called mechanic tried his hand at it, no change since then. He said he tried a new PCM and it still didn't not change the status. When this truck broke down, it had just a couple days prior had a new fuel pump and filter put in. Then it just died out of the blue. There is no codes in memory.
I am at a total loss on this thing. I have read everything I could find around this subject and tried to add ground to the trigger with, it will start then flood and nothing more. Oh I did also verify the tps and iac as well as the egr.
Like I said I am at a loss and not sure what direction to go from hear. And so far prodemand and alldata have been little help outside of the wiring diagrams.
