2903 Ford Escape crank no start. What’s next?!

Asked by Guru32V7S Jul 15, 2020 at 12:42 PM about the 2003 Ford Escape

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I recently bought a 2003 Ford Escape and it has
been nothing but problems. The car ran perfect for
about 3 days, then it quit. Had it towed to a shop
and replaced the fuel pump. Ran for another day or
2 and has been out of commission since. This car
has had a new fuel pump, new spark plugs, new
engine coils, new coolant sensor, new O2 sensor,
and a radiator flush. The check engine light was on
took it to autozone and used their checker. The
error was for bad coils and misfire detected. I’ve
replaced almost everything. Not sure what the
problem is but I can’t pour more money in this
without a solution. Any help appreciate!

A crank no start indicates that you either don't have spark or fuel. Test for fuel pressure, and then spark.
