[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 855841, member: 52972"] l1tech Take it from someone who owned a 2001 Sport Trac...The pump runs longer that 2 seconds. More like 6-10 seconds. And if you have the leaking fuel pump like I had, you can crank all day and the engine will not start until you cylce the ignition off and the second time it will start instantly. The vehicle was only 2 months old when I took it back to the dealer. The tech told me that when the ignition is turned on and it does not sense proper fuel pressure immediately, it will not activate the ignition to fire. That is the exact symptoms my Sport Trac had Prior to taking it to the dealer, I discovered that if you turned the key on for 10-15 seconds you could hear the pump running (6-10 seconds). They cycle the ignition off and then attempt to start the vehicle it would fire immediately. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
