95 - F-150 will crank but not start.

Hello,

I have a 1995 Ford F-150 with dual gas tanks. A few weeks back it was having problems starting, but I could always seem to get it going after a bit. Several times now it has just sputtered and stalled out and would not restart. After a few hours it would start. Now it will not start at all.

I have tried the following to diagnose it.

1) Switched to the rear tank - still no fire up

2) Sprayed starter fluid in the intake. Started for a bit then died 1-2 seconds.

3) Turned ignition on I can hear the pump for 1-2 seconds after the ignition is turned. Flipped the tank selector and the rear tank offers the same result.

4) Pulled the fuel pump relay and swapped for other relays (all 4 are the same model number) no change in results - will crank but no start.

It really seems to be a fuel problem. I doubt that both pumps are priming and are also bad. I have read (online) about a fuel pump driver module corroding, but that appears to be on newer models. I can't find one on mine. The only examples I can find are on single tank models mounted on a cross member under the spare tire. On mine that is where the rear tank is and I cannot find it (may not have one on a 95).

Any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Just changed it about 30 minutes ago. Still not working, but the filter needed to be changed anyway.

I took it to a shop. They said the fuel pressure was ok, and that is was the distributor. We are waiting on the part now. We will see if that fixes it. Thank you all for your help!
