Fuel issue on 06 expedition

Asked by mustangtabby1981 Feb 02, 2023 at 03:47 PM about the 2006 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I ran my expedition out of gas today and I filled it up, but now it wont start.  I put
the heat in it(its Idaho and cold) I put a new air filter in it, I sprayed starter fluid
in there and it still won't start.  If I push the fuel reset button, will it help?  I don't
know what is wrong with it.  I am trying and praying its not the fuel pump,
because I just paid $100 to fill it

If you sprayed starter fluid down the intake and it didn’t even try to run then you have a spark issue, plus you ran it out of fuel and that usually burn out the fuel pump cause the pump uses the fuel as a coolant, so when you run less than 1/4 tank the fuel pump get exposed and starts to run hotter then normal. So you have more than one problem. Did you pull the codes?
