Car takes about 3 to 5 tries to start. I replaced gas pump, plugs, cables, temp sensor, still takes long to start.O/D off light started flashing, and now it has a rough gear change I believe from 2nd to 3rd

The contact owns a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac. The contact stated that the vehicle randomly failed to start upon turning the key numerous times. The dealer (pegues-hurst Ford, 200 tx-63 spur, longview, tx 75601, (903) 758-6211) was contacted and indicated that they would need to determine if they could replicate and diagnose the failure. The contact was advised to schedule an appointment with the dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed. The manufacturer issued 12 technical service bulletins (tsbs) for the electrical system, 52 tsbs for the engine, and 3 tsbs for the fuel system gasoline, but the contact was uncertain as to which part caused the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 170,000.
