Unhappy 92 ranger no start

I have a 1992 ranger 3.0 2 w/d, I just bought 2 rangers that have been sitting up for a couple of years. 1988 and a 1992. when I brought it home it would turn over and act like it wanted to start. I took off the fuel tank to clean it out and put it back on, it was empty. now it will not turn over to start. it just clicks at the starter relay on fenderwall, starter was checked out at autozone....good. battery good, jump start no difference. hit on starter with rubber hammer , no help. what else can I check? I know its something simple... no parts off of the 1988 ranger will interchange either,its a 2.3....

Default Re: 92 ranger no start

Sounds to me like you have an issue with corroded wiring from the fenderwall solenoid to the solenoid on the starter motor.

On a side note, I've had this same problem, and also, I own a '92 as well.

Hope this helps.
