I checked all of the engine wiring diagrams and Ford doesn't use the inertia switch in this model. What problem are you having?

That might do it if the fuel was old/contaminated. I would try starting fluid and if that changes nothing let's check for spark.

Here is a guide and video to help us see what's going on:
