Tiger Dan Auto Ranch

Hey Dan! I remember back in Feb of 2007 seeing a Ranger 5.0 project sitting in your Auto Ranch (or Auto Museum or whatever you call that hodgepodge of cars) and was just wondering if you had ever completed it?

No, funny you should mention it, my bro-in-law was commenting on it the other day.

Got some wiring problems to sort out, it runs but won't start without starting fluid and shows a Check Engine Light but the code scanner won't read anything when I plug it in. Just haven't had time to work on it, too many other projects, too little time and money.

Bummer. That is good that it is running, but sucks that it will not start by itself. Strange that the code scanner won't pull the code though.

Yeah, there was a lot of rewiring to do, I obviously missed something...

Did you have to do as much rewiring as Joe did in his video?

Probably more...and EFI wiring isn't very forgiving if you screw up or miss a connection!
