2001 Ford Expedition V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

My expedition refuses to start. I replaced the fuel filter, air filter and treated the fuel to raise the octane. The night before we used it and it ran fine. The next morning it wouldn't sty running and eventually quit starting altogether. There are no trouble codes that come up and I am at a loss for what to do next.

Hi:
If there are no lights coming on, I would start by checking fuel pressure. Most nationally recognized parts stores will rent or lend a fuel pressure gauge. Hook it up on the fuel rail and it will tell you if you are getting the pressure you need.

Let me know what you find. If you have good pressure, check for spark.
