Hi,
My ranger is not getting spark after i was a bit overzealous with the powerwasher (relatively weak ryobi electric unit). I did not wash the engine bay but did spray up onto the trans/oil pan area to rid of some oil residue. i did see a few electrical connectors around the front bottom area but everything seems to be intact. Is there anything on the under side that i could have damaged that would cause me to have no spark? i opened up the distributor and cleaned it, pulled out spark plug and tested on the header (its a bit rusty) and saw no spark. I also found the ICM pigtail to be corroded so that was replaced (they sent me a backwards unit which i had to modify). I just got this truck literally 2 days before this happened, so i dont know much about it at all. please help me get it running! I will snap some photos and upload them here tomorrow.
