I updated/tuned up all gaskets, seals, wiring and hoses etc, on my truck, put it all back together, drove it a few days and now it won't start. It does crank over though. I replaced the battery and still no start. Double checked all my connections and I don't see a problem anywhere. It has a dual gas tank, and one didn't seem to work right so I also changed fuel pumps filters etc. I don't understand why It ran good a few days and now even when I try to jump it it still won't start. Battery is good! Any Ford People out there please help me!

It sounds like the ignition module went out which is common on these trucks, here is a video to help us see if there is spark and if not, I would replace the module.

It is for ignition coils, but the process is the same for plug wires. Here is the location of the ignition module so you can check it out. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
