After filling up, the starter motor seems to "overcrank" and the engine does not fire. I immediately turn the ignition key to "off" and then re-try. Second time it starts fine. This has happened intermittently over the last 2 years.
Update from Jul 29, 2024: Problem was evap canister purge valve. Cheap to buy and easy part to diagnose and replace. See this video:
The ford quit at Walmart 06/15/18, It took five times to start. Then Saturday Morning it did it again, So I had flat bed haul it to Auto Quick in Locust Grove. They checked it out and found that the Ignition switch was bad. But it had started right up, But the switch was still bad. They said they could fix it and replace the switch for 190.00. So I drove the truck home, got home and went to move it and it wouldn't start. Had order a switch from Rock auto, it was cheaper like for 40.78. DON'T LIKE TAKING CARS OR TRUCKS back to Dealers to get ripped off.
