Thanks in advance, we are stumped..
1992 Explorer 4x4 4.0 OHV
Temperature dropped for the first time this winter, below 30 degrees, and she would not start.
We are getting zero codes, Key on running or not....nada....zilch....
I checked everything, cleaned the IAC, replaced the IAT, the coolant sensor was less than a year old, has gas..
Started with starting fluid ran well, warmed up, shut down, started again a hour later, but next morning? Crank and Crank and crank. Will not cold start without juice (Ether)
Tested for spark (YES), fuel pressure (YES, she is not draining back) FPR is good. All good.
Park in a warm garage at night? Starts fine. Leave it outside when the temp goes way down...nothing...
So? I am leaning toward the ECC....but if that is bad, how come it EVER will start? Help, love my old gal and she is well maintained!
