- 1996 Ford Ranger 2.3l
Hi all,
Hope im posting in correct location.
I have a 96 Ford Ranger regular cab. For about 4 weeks it will ONLY start (after sitting for at least 8 hours) with a shot of ether. On very warm days it will start after cranking for a few seconds. Every morning I have to use ether though. It runs fine after that. Fuel system is 35lbs with ignition on. Fuel filter replaced. Once its running it will restart no problem. I use gas pedal to get it to start even with ether. My temp gauge works and heater works so Im thinking its not coolant sensor. Im not sure which way to go. Im a technician by trade and run an Engineering dept but this has me stumped. PLEASE help! Thanks
