badjack Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 when trying to start my 1999 explorer as it was very difficult, one mechanic said that it looked like the fuel pressure is low so we changed the fuel pump but i want 2nd thought as it will be money spending job and i want to make sure before i start if there could be other factors.

waliaji Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 there could be a lot of factors its best that you take your car to other mechanic and get a 2nd opinion it can also be clogged fuel line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harsheet Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 spark plugs, starter and battery also maybe the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboo Ibraheem Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I HAD DIFFICULTIES STARTING MY FF 2006 BEFORE, ONE MECHANIC(HE SPOILED MY HEATER TOO) TOLD ME IT IS STARTER, I WAS GETTING READY TO CHANGE IT & IT IS EXPENSIVE, BUT OTHER GUY TOLD ME IT IS BATTERY AND HE WAS RIGHT! IF THERE IS SOME CRACKLING SOUND WHEN STARTING CHECK YOUR BATTERY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badjack Posted March 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 a lot of permutation combination has to happen before getting the actual cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
