My Ranger, with 130,000 miles, turns over for several seconds before starting. Runs fine once started. I've replaced the plugs, air filter and fuel filter. I can turn the key on and off 3 times and it starts right up. Seems like it's losing it's prime, if that is possible. Fuel pump?

 

my 08 did that last night to me aswell.....turned it on and off in my driveway, each time it coughed out a bunch of crap through the exhaust....started just fine this morning though

 

Never mind, did a search and found plenty of info. I should of done the search before posting, my bad.

 

I'm experiencing this exact same issue with my 08 Ranger. Did you determine a solution? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

 

Did you figure out what was wrong?? My truck is doing the same thing.
