smell the oil if it smells like gas That is why we call that yellow light on the dash the idiot light! my 1st bet is that you washed out the bottom end by ignoring the repairs needed and have seized the engine . i hope im wrong but thats why they have the nickname Ford Exploder

    My Ford explorer seemed as it ran out of gas,but I but gas in and still won't work. I think it's the fuel pump relay or the fuel pump itself. How can you test to know which one it is?
