I live in alaska and recently my bronco stopped starting. When I went to start it the truck started at first but ran really choppy and sputtered a little then quit....i tryed to start it again and it wouldnt start this time. It was cranking but wouldnt turn all the way over....thought it might be the battery so i hooked jumper cables up and that made no difference.

Find out what's missing between fuel and spark

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,coil's resistances,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
