Nzoner's Game Room>Question for you car mechanics out there
Titty Meat 02:10 PM 07-16-2020
I have a 97' Ranger. It wont start all it does is make a "click" sound when I try starting it.

I don't have battery cables but I do have a battery reader and the battery was at 12.3 Volts.

Any idea what might be the issue? I'm thinking a starter.

You are kidding, You do not know how to read a battery voltage while attempting to start at both the battery and the solenoid?.

I personally have owned Rangers (20 yeas ago) and after cleaning the terminals and testing voltage at battery and solenoid, you should be able to diagnose the solenoid, Batteries will work/ test fine and test bad an hour minutes later.

Don't as me why I know, just accept that I do.


$5 says you won't post pics of battery and cables....cause their fucked

Fuck, I drove a 07 Cobalt for a few years. Still a better choice than a Murano.

I dared Clay to post pics of his mothers Jeep, Now I dare you to do the same.

I think I will call you "Shallow Hal"

The brand new Rangers are pretty slick trucks IMO. I always like the older ones. And no car payment is the best car payment.

And a bed is always nice. Hard to go hoggin' without a place to put a trough.

It would be a good car for where you live and despite having some issues with it as of late it's been a good truck. The only thing is it sucks balls in the winter.

If it acts up again try pouring some M&Ms in the radiator.

I really like mine. And yes, no payments! Here it is parked next to a new Raptor.

Would parking on an incline have anything to do with maybe the fuel injector acting up? I did run out of gas last friday. I also know Rangers are notorious for having problems with the steering wheels.

I like the Toyota's proven resale vs the Ranger.

"The 2020 Ford Ranger might be the more practical choice for everyday needs, but the 2020 Toyota Tacoma stands out more in physical presence, standard features, and overall value."
