bansheeryder21 Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I need any advice out there! I have a 2000 Ford F150 5.4 and it stopped running about three weeks ago. It was running fine and then the next morning it didn't start! It is cranking over fine but it just won't start! I replaced the fuel pump, the fuel pump relay, a couple sensors, and another sensor inside the cams. My father in law is a mechanic and thought that's what it was but we have had no luck! It is definetly something electric but we can't figure out what! If anyone knows what it might be or knows of a good ford website to help me out please respond!!!! Thanks!!! This is driving me Crazy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is driving me Crazy!!! 342068[/snapback] are you throwing a check engine light? if so what is the code and the code number. should be a number like po1111 or something like that. you could have a million things but what diagnostics have you done so far is it getting spark, is the fuel pump running and if so whats the fuel pressure at? check that stuff out and lemme know, we'll get it running by the way have you checked the emergency fuel shut off switch in the right side lower kick panel in the cab? make sure that the button is pushed in.

cb67rs1 Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 (edited) what engine? 4.6 or 5.4? anyways if its a gas burner more than likely if youe not starting check your fire, if its not firing your crank shaft position sensor could be bad. guess i should have read the first line, 5.4 Edited March 20, 2005 by cb67rs1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OverRaTeD Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 Have you replaced your fuel filter? Once they clog up, it will keep your motor from running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wesw Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 you need to hook up a scan tool to see if there is a code like the one guy said. you can put 25 sensors on and not get it right unless you scan it. sounds like a crank or cam sensor. they must time the ignition system so it will start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansheerider29x Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 Ok let me tell u ford sucks! My dad owns a 96? ford f150 and it is a peice. Just for the hell of it i will tell u ford can stand for a million things like found.on.road.dead. flip.over.re.do. and f*cked.on.race.days. When my dad got his truck later on the top end went and had to redo it all himself becuase his warrenty just ended. He did everything and still no luck of getting it running. He found out he had a bad vacume leak as one problem and his o2 censors were bad too With his top end. After all this was done he spent well over 1000 on getting it fixed and still runs like crap. I suggest once you get it fixed sell it and get a GMC i have heard great things about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
