I HAVE A 95' RANGER(4 CYL. MAN. TRANS)THAT WON'T START. I PUT A NEW BATTERY IN IT AND IT WOULDN'T START SO I TRIED PUSH STARTING IT , THAT DIDN'T WORK, BUT THEN I TRIED TO START IT WITH THE KEY AGAIN AND IT STARTED. WHEN I SHUT IT OFF IT WOULDN'T START AGAIN. I BOUGHT A NEW STARTER AND A NEW STARTING SOLINOID. ALL IT DOES WHEN U TRY AND START IT IS BUMP THE GEAR OUT IN THE STARTER BUT IT DOESN'T SPIN TO START THE ENGINE. I DON'T KNOW IF THEIR IS A LOOSE WIRE OR WHAT?

You are into some very, very basic stuff here... From your description, it very nearly sounds like a bad ring gear..... But I am left wondering because the things you are doing don't jive with the concern you are describing...
Also for the OP all capital letters on a usnet post is considered SHOUTING.
Sorry about the all caps thing. Anyway, I found my problem. It was a bad ground from the battery to the engine block. I went ahead and replaced both positive and negitive conections and everythings great. Thanks anyway to those who responded. Another issue I have is with my 99'dodge ram Quad cab 1500 4x4. I'm on my forth transmission and starting to have issues again. Does anyone else have this problem. Thanks in advance.
I would suggest you would get many more responses by posting this to alt.autos.dodge.truck
Yeah, I posted it over there too. thanks.
