sometimes it starts sometimes it don't is there an easy answer?

When I first purchased this Bronco and started driving it home every thing was A-1. I noticed it needed fuel so i pulled into a filling station and filled it up. When i was ready to leave it wouldn't start, after cranking for a while i realized it wasn't going to start, so i pushed it out of the way and started checking it out. It had spark so I figured it was gas but being on the road with no tools i figured i would call a ford dealer and see if they could and would help, while i was looking one up my brother came up and told me it had started, so i drove it on home (about 300 miles) with no problems. It has done this 2 or 3 times since and i haven't done anything about it untill now. Any ideas?
Thank you much
John Larson

If you have spark it could be several things. You could have an electrical wire shorting out, it could be the fuel injectors, or a bad fuel pressure regulator. Here is a link that will tell you how to check your fuel system: http://minimopar.knizefamily.net/fuelsystem.html

Check your connectors on the drivers side fender well under the hood.. These are bad about corrosion and will cause engine miss,shut off and restart and no start.
