Test for spark fuel and compression. Could be wiring to something you changed. It is not always the sensor but the wiring going to the part.

Don't forget about uh t the the fuel pump driver module. I just did a crank shaft seal job on my 99 cougar, and mine won't start. It cranks but won't start, only when I spray a little bit of starter fluid for a few seconds. Replaced the fuel f UK lter now I am tracking the fuel lines and testing g my module Tom ou rrow.
