Why won't your 1997 mercury mountaineer start when you turn the key it turns over but doesn't fire up Could your electonic brain be your problem you used it 1 hour before and it had no problems?

I'm not a mechanic / technician but when your engine turns over but doesn't
fire it's either not getting fuel or spark ( or air assuming that no one has
shoved bananas in your exhaust tail pipe ) I would start with the basics , on
the fuel side is there a fuel reset light lit up in your gauge cluster when you try
to start the Mountaineer ( if so , the fuel pump inertia switch has been tripped
the switch is located in the front passenger footwell behind or by the kick
panel ) or it could be the fuel pump fuse , relay . or the actual fuel pump .
As I said I'm not a mechanic / technician so if it is anything on the spark
side I would have it taken to a professional
