Hello everyone, I am pretty much at my wits end. I went to do a compression test on my Ranger and since i messed up a few plug wires i figured id just throw some plugs and wires on it. Well i have everything back on and it wont start. I have gone through and made sure everything was good quite a few times so ill post the pic of what i followed for the coil and wires and a video of it turning over. Thanks for the help in advance.
Did you by chance pull the fuel pump fuse or fuel pump relay to do the compression test?
Some do an then forget to plug fuel power back in
If that's not the case then I would do 50/50 test
Remove the air tube from upper intake
Spray fuel into the engine, gasoline, ether, carb cleaner, ect...............
Try to start
If it starts and dies you have a fuel issue
If it doesn't start its a spark issue
50/50, instant results on where to go next
What were the numbers on compression test?
Just curious

I did what you suggested and nothing happened, I have a spark testing tool where I was able to check the spark on each cylinder and I noticed that cylinders 1,2,3’s spark was not so strong however 4,5,6 had strong spark. I’m thinking my ignition coil maybe bad? It has a warranty so I’ll just swapnit
out .
