usually in any vehicle when the battery dies if you keep turning the key there will be a ticking sound and since the battery has no power left it wont turn over your engine therefor it not being able to start however if the battery is just fine you got me
No. It should only spark with the engine turning over.
With a key, by turning on ignition
You should have an auto mechanic check the car or take to the Ford dealership.
i can only presume is lack of engine oil or adjustment on tappets( pls be more detailed)or diesel engine it being a injector blowing
generally , cranking an engine is done with igniton where turning is done by hand with the ignition off so as it will not start
The engine coolant drain plug, on a 1998 Ford expedition, is located on the bottom of the radiator. The drain plug will come out by turning to the left.
The 5.4 liter V8 engine , available in the 1998 Ford Expedition has a Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system
On a 2004 Ford Expedition : Both the 4.6 and 5.4 litre V8 engines have the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P.) ignition system with ( 8 ) individual coils
may be a bad starter..... or if the engine is cranking with no start it could be the ignition wires
On a 1997 Ford Expedition : There is no distributor If you have the 4.6 liter V8 engine you have the Electronic Distributorless Ignition System ( EDIS ) with ( 2 coils ) and spark plug wires and If you have the 5.4 liter V8 engine , it has the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system with ( 8 ) individual coils
It is called pre-ignition, find a friendly mechanic.
