I don't understand, it is the second time this has happened to me. I shut the truck off leave it for a while, once getting gas another time gone for less than half an hour.
I turn the key and the truck cranks and cranks but no start. The next time I turn the key it starts up.
I have the 5.0L V8 but maybe anyone else could help me.
Has it ever happened to you? It just seems like one of the times it isn't gonna start and I want to catch the problem before this happens. It was about a month apart between times so its not often but anoying.
 






sounds like it could be a loose wire in either the ignition system or the fuel system..
 






Yes it has happened to me, but not with the Explorer. Cause in this example was a weak spark - either battery or leads (I changed both and the problem went away).
