Hello world - first Ranger Post!
1994 Ranger XLT extended cab, 2.3, manual tranny
I was driving down the road and the engine just stopped and has not started since. Yes, there is plenty of gas in the tank. It has the following new parts:
fuel pump, strainer, fuel filter, pressure regulator, fuel line and return, 4 new injectors.
The fuel rail was soaked in rust remover and everything was reinstalled.
The gas tank was cleaned out last year.
When I power the key on I hear the pump run and hear the relay click.
I did all this because I thought there was a pressure issue.
Yes, I got OBD-I codes: 111 and 542.
542 is because I removed the relay at one time and jumped the pump with a wire to build up the pressure, but it would not start.
Yesterday I cleared the only stored code.
I inserted a spark test tool and have spark.
Sprayed starting fluid into the throttle body and the engine will at least sputter some when cranking.
I tried a noid light and NO LIGHT during crank.
The connector was removed from an injector and there was LIGHT from a grounded test light to the red wire. So I put a volt meter on it and get 12volts.
I removed the Ignition Control Module yesterday and it PASSED at the parts store. It was then reinstalled.
I tought there would be a camshaft sensor but it looks like only California Emissions Rangers have those.
Now what?
