I replaced the head gasket on my ranger yesterday and got it all back together today (as best as I can tell) but now it won't start. I can get it to turn over, but no ignition. I don't think I'm getting spark, but I'm not positive. I took a spark plug wire off and put it on another spark plug then put the metal bit on the exhaust and I didn't get any sparks. (Is the exhaust grounded?) So that's what leads me to believe there's something with the distributor or something like that. There's a huge mess of wires in my engine compartment... is there someway to just forgo the stupid computer in this damn truck?
