In most cases you will have to drill it.

Most all Ford locks in the late 80s and early 90s are the same style.

sounds like water got into the starter somehow. mine did the same thing and it was because my starter was loose enough to let water in

The airbag is there, what's most likely wrong is the key switch may be going bad. Take your Ranger to a reputable mechanic and ask them to check it...unless you have an OBD II or a multimeter.

first, the starter is on the bottom of the engine toward the back and has a large wire from the battery attached to it. Second, if a mechanic said to hit it he is a pretty sorry mechanic who you should never let work on even your bicycle. Hitting a starter can damage it to the point it can't be rebuilt as it cracks the housing and wire loom assy inside. Sure, it might start a time or two like that but will cost you dearly in the long run.

lisen for the fuel pump to run when it acts up. if u cant hear it then replace the fuel pump relay
