1979 Ford F100 how many gallon of gas I should put in the gas tank to start the engine?
for any vehicle on the market, its only necessary to put enough fuel in the tank to register movement of the fuel gauge.
if you have added enough to see it move just a little bit, that is plenty, if the vehicle does not start, begin test procedures to properly diagnose the reason it will not start.
just a gallon can make most move, but if you have put 3 or 4 gallons is and see no movement, check the gauge circuit including the new float and assembly You have just installed

1998 ford ranger 2.5 mass air flow keeps coming up as bad have replaced it 3 times any thoughts
If you've replaced the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor three times and it still keeps coming up as bad, there could be a few other issues at play:
1. **Wiring or Connector Problems**: Check the wiring harness and connector for any signs of damage or corrosion. Poor connections can cause erroneous readings and trigger the MAF sensor code.
2. **Air Intake System**: Inspect the air intake system for leaks, cracks, or loose connections. Any unmetered air entering the engine can disrupt the MAF sensor's readings.
3. **Vacuum Leaks**: Vacuum leaks in the engine can affect the MAF sensor's performance. Inspect vacuum hoses and connections for leaks or damage.
4. **Faulty PCM (Powertrain Control Module)**: In rare cases, the issue could be with the vehicle's computer. A malfunctioning PCM may not be interpreting the MAF sensor data correctly.
5. **Other Sensor Issues**: Problems with other sensors such as the oxygen sensor or throttle position sensor can sometimes trigger MAF sensor-related codes.
Consider having a professional diagnostic done if you're unable to identify the issue yourself, as they can use specialized tools to pinpoint the exact cause of the problem.
1996 Ford Ranger wipers not working
Make sure you have power to the switch and that power is getting to the motor when switched on. If you are getting 12v to the motor and it is properly grounded, replace the motor. If you aren't getting 12v to the motor make sure you have 12v at the switch. If it doesn't go past the switch when you turn it on, replace the switch. If it does, check the wires between the switch and the motor. If you don't have 12v at the switch, check the fuse box. It's a pretty simple circuit

If the engine is seized up then it is trash and need to be replaced, however you should take to a repair shop and have the look it over and give you a quote. You are the only one who can see the truck so telling you what part to replace any parts would be a waste of money and time.
