Welcome to the forum!

By "will not start" do you mean that it cranks the engine over but the engine doesn't start and run, or does the starter not even crank the engine over? Which engine does your Explorer have? When is the last time that it ran?

ok first off I got it kind of. 4.0 flexfuel it only sat for 1 night. What happened was the coil pack went bad and apperently it got so flooded it would not start even after sitting for a couple hours. My 80+ year old shadetree mechanic came over and was stumped then he turned the key and laid on the gas and it started. Now I drove it about a mile and it decided to either bust a radiator hose or the water pump went out. gonna get under and see now. thanks for the response Shorod
