Our sport trac died in traffic. We pushed it off the road and could not get it to restart. After towing it home and checking out several potential solutions we are stuck! The truck will crank but won't start. We have spark to all plugs and the fuel pump/relay are all working. When we crank it it definitely sounds like there is an exhaust blockage. We disconnected the tailpipe ahead of the first catalytic converter thinking we might have a clogged converter, but the truck still won't turn over. What we DO see, however, is no exhaust is leaving through the tailpipe, and there is exhaust smoke attempting to come out of the air intake! Does anybody have any idea what could be causing this type if issue and how to fix it? Thanks for your help!

 
Yeah sounds like it bent a valve, Broke a timing chain and the motors done.
