Hello! I've been a lurker as I've owned a couple Rangers before my current one. I purchased this 2001 a few weeks ago. It was listed as running but not drive-able due to needing a clutch. I ended up changing the clutch master cylinder in front of the guy's house and drove it home (he seemed pissed and it was a steal). The issue I'm having which was present when I purchased it is that in order to start it, I must have the key in the on position and then push the contacts together on the starter relay. My first thought was the starter switch but after replacing it with a new one, the issue has not been resolved. Anyone have any guesses as to where my fault could be? The PO believed there is a ground issue somewhere. Solving electrical issues is not my strong point. Thanks!
Also, the clutch also seems to engage when the pedal is only a couple inches off the floor, does this sound like I'm not quite fully bled?
