My father has an F150 4.2L engine. It is a 1999. It started backfiring and eventually stopped turning over all together. He has checked the fuel injection system which seems to be working. He has also changed the Ignition Coil thing (sorry i'm no mechanic). He now wants to try changing the CrankShaft position sensor. Could someone tell me the easiest way to go about this or if there might be something else he can try to get his truck going again. He likes to just poke at it till it starts working but I am trying to save him some time and money. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Alright gentlemen and ladies. I purchased the OBD II scanner recomended by you all. We followed all the instructions and got "No Codes". The only thing it indicated was that some of the I/M systems were not ready. These included the CAT, EVAP, O2S HO2S, EGR. I don't know if those matter or not as again...not a car gal. What is our next move any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
