'99 Sport 4.0 soch 4x4
Hey everyone I have a 99 ex 4.0 sohc 4x4. My problem is earlier today I'd say about 2:30 pm, I start her up with no problems and parked in street to take Windstar. So I was going to get take-out in truck and it wouldn't start. It cranks but won't start it's 25* outside but i never had a problem with cold weather start before. Wondering if it could be fuel line freeze up or something more serious? Thanks in advance for any replies
 






I did notice when i put the key in and turn to on the theft light goes out so I don't think that the problem. Any ideas
 






with the amount of ethanol added to gas these days, fuel line freeze up is far less common. If your gasline froze, you have some serious amount of water in your tank, not just condensation build up. Try some starting fluid and see if it fires.
 






I tried starting fluid nothing happend. Is it possible battery was charged enough to crank but not enough to start? I was thinking about jumping it when i get home from work.
