2000 explorer crank no start

I have a unlisted youtube video, and a picture of one spark plug, hard to get at the rest, and it being so very cold out doesn't help. It started on friday kind of roughly, and after that it has refused to start .

I fiddled with some stuff, and I really didn't do anything and it started. It shook pretty bad in gear, not driveable. So spark plugs and wires got ordered, and a scan tool.

sounds like it might not be getting gas try turning the key to the on and listen if the fuel pump in kicking in ..

for what it's worth, that spark plug looks pretty normal. what would be good info to get is what your fuel pressure is when it wont start. should be around 65 psi. have you tried unplugging your crank position sensor, cleaning the terminals and plugging it back in again.

It started up later on monday after really not doing any changes to it. I tried to ohm out the postive and negative on the coil pack, couldn't hold the ends to the tiny connecters inside. Decided to reconnect everything and try starting. It fired up, and shook pretty good, even worse putting it in gear.
The next day, I tried it again, and it ran a lot smoother, no shaking with it in gear. I am mystifyied.

The youtube video should of cleared that question up, thanks anyways.
