Ok guys, long time no see haha
I have tun into an issue with my girlfriends 01 Explorer Sport , she ran it out of fuel and now the thing wont start, well, wont start on its own , i can get it to run on starting fluid but that is it. It's and 01 Sport with a 4.0 SOHC, we changed the fuel filter (not clean at all) and i checked fuel pressure tonight, was showing ~35 psi while cranking.
I am thinking that the running out of fuel dealt a death blow to the fuel pump , but the haynes manual says that the reading i am getting is normal (I do not trust the Haynes manual, but it is all i have, i no longer work on cars for a living so no longer have access to a SIS)
Any pointers you guys can give me is greatly appreciated, this is going on 3 weeks now and it is really bugging me.
