JAH MYSTIC
I am a hobby mechanic and do a lot of backyard repairs. I have learned over the years many shortcuts and backyard tricks to get you out of a bind. Not too good with the technical stuff. I have 2 motorcycles, one a trike made from a Grand Prix, a 1929 ford model A and a caravan. I live in eastern Canada. Way eastern - N.B.
Why did my Ranger lose it's spark?
1987 Ranger 2L 1 bbl carburetor. Here's the symptoms. Battery & starter are fine. Cranks great. Let the key go & the starter stops cranking. Turn the key off & the engine does a little cough backwards & spits out of the carburetor. When I pull the #1 wire and insert a screwdriver no spark jumps to ground when cranking. New rotor, cap, wires & plugs. Was running after tune up, just stopped for no apparent reason.
