Would love any input or advisement.
2007 5.4 Triton never any issues until yesterday mornings crank no start.
Very cold here (as is elsewhere).
Turn of ignition and the key does not return to run from start position without my help.
In other words if I turn to start and take my hand away the engine continues to crank but never starts.
It has never done this before and I feel has to be linked to the crank no start BUT.........
I have previously owned for many years a 99 expy and had to replace twice the fuel pump on it.
Current situation makes me think same problem but the ignition thing has got me scratching my head.
Is there any way to easily get any fuel into the throttle body to see if she will fire ???
I have my son turn the key while listening under the hood and do hear what seems the normal fuel rail charge sound I am familiar with.
Laying under the vehicle with ear against the fuel tank I have my son again key on and nothing.....not a sound.
Not looking forward to dropping the tank to replace pump in the sub freezing conditions.
Am I crazy to suspect this ignition my be my problem ???
