1990 F-150 4.9L manual,a/c - Sudden Starting Problem

Jul 11, 2005 Last reply: 21 years ago 1 Replies

Suddenly, the truck turns over but will not start. Up until then it always started right up. I can hear the fuel pump so I don’t believe that is the problem. I could not find my 13/16" spark plug socket (I had three 5/8" though, go figure) so I haven’t checked the plugs yet but I don’t think they are the problem. The dist cap and rotor appear ok. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thx.


funny, i just had the same problem, they had to replace the ignition selenoid, apparently FORD issued a recall but i never got it.
