[r3vak]

I shut my car off yesterday night went to goto breakfast today and it wont start.
Have tryed everything getting fuel/spark, anyone ever had/heard of this problem

1997 Ford Ranger 2.3 2wd

Thanks


******* Im sorry it is not gettting any spark, how do i test the ignition coil to see if that is getting power? I would hate to go buy 1 and find out it isnt that, also I have power to everything else as far as electronics are concerned. The truck hasnt moved since i shut it off.

Use an ohm meter and check the cam shaft shaft position sensor. With it unplugged it should go from zero to one when cranking. Next check the crankshaft position seal the same way. The cam sensor fires the coil and the crankshaft sensor tells the computer timing. Next check the ground for the eec relay in the right kick panel. Then feel the eec relay to see if it clicks. with your finger on it when trying to start you should feel it click.
This covers most causes of no spark.
