yes its turning over just wont start, does it from time to time, but it did it this time and wont start at all so i checked and theres no spark from the coil, its not the coil cuz it did it with the stock motorcraft coil also. where is the ignition switch and how do i check it? thanks for the quick reply i was supposed to be goin to my cuzins shop to put it on the lift to change the trans pan and it wont start..

Could be a bad ECM. Mine burn up and I wasn't getting any spark. You can unplug the ECM and crank it while someone else checks for spark/spray some starting fluid down the intake to see if it fires. If you get fire, it's the ECM.
