Why won't my truck start? - 1
I have a1977 ford ranger with a 7.5 litter engine. I put a bran new batter in it and it still won't start when ever I turn the key it does nothing why
Check to see if the fuel pump is coming on when you turn the key if not it is a fuse problem. If so the ignition is faulty and has a problem also check alternator
Its not the electric fuel pump in a 77. They do not have an electric fuel pump. Its mechanical. I believe this is electrical corrosion issue.
Disconnect the POS side of battery. Take a "battery terminal cleaner tool" (round wire brush) and clean the battery post and cable. Do not re-attach just yet. Now follow the cable to the solenoid on the inner fender. Remove ONE WIRE at a time, scrub, re-attach. Now move on to NEG side of battery clean, follow that cable down to frame and wire brush the frame, cable end, bolt & washer. Re-attach. Last, clean POS cable end at starter and all wires, ONE WIRE at a time. Hook battery back up and start it.
Sounds to me like the alternator but I could be wrong
- Why did my car start and die when put into gear? Now it won't start at all? It's a cold winter day (below zero) Car started right up! I let it run for about 2 minutes, I put it in gear and it just died. I figured it's cold out, not real surprising, but when I tried to start it again, it won't start! Turns over fine but engie won't start! Any ideas? 2003 Ford Taurus 3.0L
- Truck won't start after washing cab? I washed out the cab of my 2010 ford f-150 and now It won't start, it won't even crank help!
- Ford F-150 Truck started, ran rough. Now won't start at all. Any ideas? 1977 Ford F-150 with carburetor, 8 cylinders. After several attempts, it started immediately (without the usual starter crank-up sound), ran loud & rough like a lawnmower. I turned it off, now it won't start. Starter is strong, battery full, airfilter good, fresh fuel is reaching the carb. Weather is hot and slightly humid. Anyone have a guess?
- Car won't start even with jump start? I have a Ford Escort 2001. I checked the battery at Auto Zone, told me it was fine and had charge. The alternator is also good. The starter is also fine. When I turn the key there's no clicks. The lights on the dashboard stay on. Does anyone know what it could be? I've also checked the cables and connections.
