93 2.3L fires, idles for a few, then dies
Hello all, I知 new to the forum (but not to the mechanical world) and I知 stumped on an issue with my 93 Ranger with the 2.3 and a 5pd
Some backstory, I bought this truck about 2 weeks ago and it was a no spark, no crank, no start. The guy had explained that it had sat for about a year and the gas was never changed out (Was at a quarter of a tank). So far, I致e replaced the battery, fuel filter, cleaned my spark plugs, cleaned my injectors and put a gallon of 91 in with octane booster, fuel system treatment, and some seafoam injector cleaner.
Now onto the issue I知 having. Right now the engine will crank till the battery dies and it will sputter here and there but not fully start. If I spray some starting fluid in, it will crank a few times, start strong, idle for about 1-2 seconds and then die suddenly. I know my fuel pump is working as I hear it prime and I know I have spark since it fires off the ether.
I was wondering if I possibly have a timing issue or if it could be a sensor somewhere? I have tried searching this forum and haven稚 found anything like my issue. So I decided to join and see if I could get some answers. I apologize in advance if anything doesn稚 make sense and if you ask me to, I値l try to reword it the best I can. Thank you I知 advance for any input made here.
