check ur fuel pump, fuel filter, ignition, distributer, spark plugs... how many miles does it have on it? im bettin on fuel pump (would cause ur fuel filter to clog too, fuel pumps just a piece of shit, i mean plastic) but idk. mine just sits there so i cnt say about any problems ive had. i need a new motor mount and a tranny. lol shes not active rite now. mite wanna check your fuel injectors too. its a ford, dnt be surprised if a Really Big Leaf clogged the throttle body. lmao

check the ground wire by the battery there is a black wire with a clip just behind the battery on the - neg side or the gas cut off under the glovebox and under the carpet on the left side looking at the floor

turn your key switch on,listen to see if u here a humming sound from gas tank,if not fuel pump is gone,also check the ECM fuse,if it is blown it wont crank or kick in the fuel pump.
