Question for you car mechanics out there
I have a 97' Ranger. It wont start all it does is make a "click" sound when I try starting it.

I don't have battery cables but I do have a battery reader and the battery was at 12.3 Volts.

Any idea what might be the issue? I'm thinking a starter.

Early S-10 were Known for less fuel mileage as the full size V-8s. It is a fact

Manual?

In the mid-late 90s the S-10's with an automatic were straight dogs. But if you got a regular cab manual it would sip fuel and have enough to pass on the highway or whatever.

2 of my buddies on my basketball team had comparable year S-10s. One was a regular cab manual, the other was an extended cab automatic. The one with the manual was telling someone what mileage his pickup got. The other guy like ran across the gym to interrupt the conversation to say WTF it can't get that good. The look on his face was ****ing classic.

I hadn't thought about those guys in years.

Yeah, the early ones were garbage. My grandpa had one, I don't know what year. Had to be one of the first models. It would barely pull itself. But it went as fast as he needed it to - 35 LOL

I test drove a regular cab manual, and my legs were too long to operate the clutch in that small ass cab. Ended up with an extended cab automatic. Guess that was the problem.

IIRC that S10 was either carbureted or a throttle body injection. Had an 86 Firebired with the multi-port injection version of that 2.8, and while it still sucked balls, it didn't suck as bad as that truck. It had a 5 speed manual as well which probably didn't hurt.

Yup thinking it has something to do with the ignition switch judging by some of what I read on car gurus this seems like a common issue with the Rangers.

Would be interested in what SAUTO thinks.

How about those Typhoons and Syclones in the early 90's?
iDid you all know they are bringing the Syclone back in 2021? It is suppose to be 750 HP, that is a lot for the s10 body size and style.

I have never really understood the point of high performance trucks. If I want something fast that can't tow and sucks in the snow, I'll buy a car.

Well that is you and that is fine. But half of the country doesn't get much if any snow. If there is snow you are not taking the car out in it either. At least you can haul more than ass in the pickup. The pickup is also not as common.
If it wasn't for pickups we wouldn't have tailgates at Arrowhead.

Hey now, don't try to twist that comment into me not liking pickup trucks. Or even fast pickup trucks. I just don't get high performance trucks.
