My 2003 Dakota with 4.7 engine sat it started fine and moved it about 15' away from barn door and shut off. got tractor out and was ready to use it to load trailer hooked to truck. Went to start truck and turn key, nothing. Lights all good and bright, only one on dash not working is gear shift position indicator, automatic tranny. Battery cables clean and tight. Battery on load tester checks good and jump start makes no difference. Turning the key makes no difference, hear nothing. Just like a wire would have droped of terminal.

That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi.
