- 2000 ford explorer xlt
2000 Explorer XLT 5.0 AWD. Start and run cold no problem but if you get it warm and shut it off for 10 minutes or so it wont start back up for at least a half hour. If you shut it off and turn it back on right away it starts and runs with no problems. I have intermittent CEL that is the EGR. I accidentally happened to notice that if I have trouble starting if I hook up my fuel pressure gauge and relieve the pressure on the fuel rail it starts and runs immediately. WHAT CAUSES THIS???
I have replaced fuel pump, fuel filter, coolant temperature sensor, crankshaft position sensor and because of turning the motor and excessive number of times the starter and for good measure the battery.
