Do you have spark? Is the engine getting fuel? Did the timing chain fail? If you need help with any of these questions feel free to post on my message board I will help you more. I have 30 years in working on vehicles and am more than glad to help out.

GM if there is no spark the first thing I look at is the pickup in the distributor. If there is 12 volts in the wire plugged into the distributor and no spark that about has to be it. Lots of other things too, it's just a process of elimination.

depends on what else may be going on - if the engine hesitates, revs up or down before stalling than its likely a fuel system problem - if all or most electrical devices stop working its probably in the electrical system - if the engine just suddenly dies and nothing else happens it may be a defective crankshaft sensor - could be many things

How did you change the oil of a 96 ford ranger XLT?

The best way is by having someone else do it but the PROPER way would be to do it from underneath the vehicle's engine; starting with the drain plug in the oil pan...and don't forget to change the oil filter too while you're down there...its on the SIDE of the engine.
