hello and thanks in advance to all responses.
problem- f-150 4.6 turns over like a champ, but does not fire. fuel pump works, the injector rail has fuel under pressure, battery is strong. after waiting a couple to a few hours, it will start up, no problem. doesn't happen all the time, but it seems to happen a bit more frequently recently.
could it be the "brain box"? 4 yrs ago, there was a leak in the windshield gasket that allowed water to enter the cab and drain down the interior of the dash, causing the "brain box" to get wet. things at that time would be non-working windows, blinkers, wipers, stuff like that, but it always started. the leak was sealed, and all was fine until this late spring. a service tech at a garage told me that they doubted it was the "box" due to the 4 year absence of issues.
any possible problem would be considered...especially from those that had similar experience's
