Hey all,
Finally got my ranger running, but it's hard to start once you shut it off and turn it back on. Example: I drove it for 10 minutes to a gas station (starting was a little rough, but it runs good when you're going). After I put some gas in it, it wouldn't start until I went under the hood and pushed the butterfly all the way open with someone trying to start it at that time. It was still a little rough, but at least it was coughing and wanted to (and eventually did within 10 seconds) start. Before opening the valve, it didn't even cough. Suggestions?
Thanks!
