Your video made me appreciate a good mechanic who knows what they are doing. We complain about what they charge but they often deserve what they get paid. It is difficult to find a good one you trust. Good job. I have a 96 Ford F150 that had intermittent shut off/restart issues I bought last summer but now cranks but won't start. My mechanic has not nailed down the problem and doesn't want to just start replacing parts. Another KZbin video turned out to be the inertia switch. When weather improves here in Greenbay, guess I will get out there and tinker with it myself. Or get it towed somewhere. Thanks for your tips.

It’s either the fuel pump fuse, or the fuel pump itself if you can hear a car crank, if the starter wasn’t receiving power you would hear a click when cranking rather than actual cranking noise, also, if you hear the beeping noise when the key is in the ignition, the fuel pump is receiving power from the fuse. But the real question is, is the fuel pump working properly and creating enough pressure to pump fuel into the fuel tank

When my husband turns the key in the ignition you can hear the click what does it mean.

That was great and I may have a fuel pump problem with my Ford Explorer (1999) which ran great until I parked it the last time, and when I tried to start it again, it would not start, but would crank up normally. I can't remember if I had replaced the filter on this vehicle since I owned it in 1970. I have a tool to put replace the filter on one Explorer and also on a 1987 S-10 Blazer I still have. I thank you so much for the information, and hope it works for me.

There are different fixes for Crank No Start. When you work on the engine for a while you do something to the settings of the vehicle and you might need to do a reset this will clear old codes too. Ok disconnect negative cable and get another wire maybe one side of a jumper cable and put one end on the Negative CABLE make sure it is away from the battery terminal may be put a rag over it to make sure they don't touch then touch the other connecting end to the positive side terminal for one minute. another CRANK NO START fix is to check Crank Positioning Sensor THEY ARE USUALLY OUT OF SIGHT FROM THE TOP OF THE ENGINE. They can't be forgotten after pulling the timing chain cover off. on a 99 ford Expedition 5.4 its underneath passenger's side. With it unplugged it will still have fuel pressure but spark.

My husband watched this video because we had the problem with our 97 Ford after minor work he did (shocks replaced) and it wouldn't start. He discovered (thanks to the serendipitous visit of a neighbour) that the fuel pump shut-off switch had tripped because he was bouncing the car to check the shocks and lifting and lowering it and dropping it. He pressed the red reset button on top of the shutoff switch and then when he turned the key he could hear the fuel pump run again. It started!

Hey Jim, I have a 2002 Ford Mustang 3.8L V6. about a year ago, I had a crank no start situation. I changed out the Spark Plugs, put ina new battery, fixed the problem. a couple months ago, I had to have surgery, and was out of work for 2 months, I went to start the car, fired up, then the whole car shook, really bad idle, and when I tried to give it gas, seemed to make it choke even more. I assumed that it may have water in the tank, due to the weather change and from sitting, so I put some of Sea Foam or whatever into the tank, I also pulled the Idle Control Valve, cleaned it out, and put on a new gasket. Disconnected the battery, and it still crank no start. I'm getting fuel at the valve, the red pump reset button is pushed down already, cannot press it in the trunk, Theift light isn't an issue, any ideas?
@jimthecarguy8 жыл бұрын
+zebarz Will the car start and just idle?When you give it gas did it stall?Did you check the fuel pressure ?Keep me posted Jim
@zebarz8 жыл бұрын
+jimthecarguy The car won't start at all, it just cranks. I did get it to start initially, after I Jumped the battery, I let it idle for about 2 and a half hours, to make sure the Alternator had time to recharge the battery, when I went out to move it into the garage, it started choking and did even more when I pressed the gas. I am kind of thinking that perhaps, since it was sitting, when I started it, it sucks stuff into the filter plugging it, I had a mechanic come out today, he believes it to be the fuel filter. I am having him come over tomarrow and install a new one, hopefully that's all it is. I try to do everything I can myself, but as I have stitches from an Incisional Hernia, I cannot lift anything. He charged me 48.00 to come out, and he stated its gonna be about a half hour to hour job tomarrow, which I think is right, Fuel Filter is easy to get to. You can clearly hear the fuel pump kick on, and I know that doesn't mean its not working right, but at least the Fuel Filter is a start, its just over 100k miles. Thank you so much Jim for the fast reply. Ill keep you posted.

96 Cadillac DeVille has fuel pump pressure has spark cranks over won't start. Sprayed starter fluid into the carburetor area. It starts up runs for 10 seconds then shuts off. Check all the fuses none of them were bad. Check the PCM it's fine. Bought a set of Noid lights to check the fuel injector power. No flash. Now I know the fuel pump is brand new. The old one wasn't even bad. The oil pressure switch ack's a fuel pump relay backup I'm wondering if that's the problem. I got up under there to look I didn't see no oil dripping from it but that still doesn't mean that it can't be bad. I brought a new fuel pump relay fuse and it's just fine. But soon as I spray the starter fluid into it it fires right up. The fuel pump pressure regulator is not leaking so I don't think that's my problem either. I'm stumped on this any suggestions

what if you cannot get to the spark plug wires, because they are under the valve cover?
@jimthecarguy9 жыл бұрын

It is not just a cover, it is an intake manifold and it takes an experienced mechanic a couple of hours to change them out, so I can imagine how long it might take me. Thanks for replying.

jimthecarguy I know that there is the push to eliminate the diyer., but if a drain was so easy to drain gas would be stolen easier and cars would messed with .. so I'm going to side with the designers on this one. I was talking to a old mechanic and I mentioned that some of the foreign made gas pumps were very cheap.. he said look for ones that have a long warranty.. That made sense if it was sketchy they wouldn't warrantee it for years.

on the distributor is a module that is gray in color that will go out and on occasion will intermittently cause that issue. Most of the time it will just not start but if you are lucky it will be like I described. Also you have a fuel cut off that malfunctions. My 1985 Ranger I got for $500 because the switch broke and left the old man stranded. I eliminated it and spliced the wires together.

You need to check the injectors, then check the fuses and relays. If all is good, check the compression and timing. If it doesn't crank at all, then checking the timing and compression isn't going to work.

michael geruldo Pull crank shaft sensor [sensor a clip behind pullys where belt is above water pump to the upper left. Use a mirror find it] clean it with electronic spray only both ends two squirts. Check ECM fuse too if its blown it cause what ur saying. Always check fuses relays sensors first work back. Use test light it save hundreds avoid replace parts dont need to be replaced
