Ranger wont start
 

so i went to my friends house today and when i was leaving i got in my truck turned the key and all it did was crank and no start. so hopefully tomorrow it will start if not then im gonna try and figure it out and fix it then the truck is going up for sale lol but it sucks

did you pump the gas at all when you started it?

yep tried that and nothing im starting to think it's the fuel pump and my dad's friend who is a mechanic thinks so too

did you have a passenger with you on the way to your friends house or when you were leaving?

?

no and that makes no sense whatso ever lol truck started and got to my friends and when trying to leave truck no start

The fuel cut-off switch is in the passenger side footwell.That's why the question was asked.
Did you try resetting it ?
Ever change the timing belt in it ? They have a habit of going with no prior warning when the engine is shut off .

oh but it does young grasshopper! just like OTRtech said, a passenger can easily kick that switch (inertia switch) and cut the power to the fuel pump. give it a check anyways. press the round red button and try starting it.

no havent reset it didnt know there was one and i havent had a passenger in my truck in a while and that's a no on the timing belt.....my dad's friend who is a mechanic said it sounds like a fuel pump

a no start is a no start, it all sounds the same whether its no fuel or no spark. the only thing that might sound different is the fuel pump not priming, which that inertia switch would cause.

got it started. it seems like it's the fuel pump relay switch sticking

Yep happened to me today. Took a while to find the switch, but we eventually got it.
