Sent to Car Experts December 02, 2005 1:36 p.m.

I HAVE A 1994 FORD F-150 SIX CYLENDAR. THIS IS THE STRANGEST THING. IN THE MORNING, WHEN IT IS COLD OUTSIDE THE TRUCK STARTS UP RIGHT AWAY, AND RUNS GREAT. IT WILL EVEN RUN AFTER THE COOLENT IS WARM AND HEATER IS BLOWING HOT. AFTER THE TRUCK SETS IN THE SUN AND IT WARMS UP OUTSIDE THE TRUCK WILL NOT START. IT TURNS OVER BUT THERE IS NO SPARK. I CHECKED FOR SPARK AT THE COIL AND HAD NONE, SO I CHANGED THE COIL. THIS DID NOT HELP. RIGHT NOW IT IS 75 OUT SIDE AND IT WON'T START THIS MORNING IT WA 55 AND IT RAN GREAT.CAN YOU SHINE SOME LIGHT ON WHAT I CANN MY VAMPIER TRUCK( IT ONLY WANTS TO COME OUT AT NIGHT).

I believe your fuel tank vent is not working.Try changing or leaving your gas cap loose when it is warm.

I at first thought that you may be just experiencing some vapor lock,but I guess that is not the case.I suggest changing your ignition module,it would cost around thirty dollars.If this doesn't solve your problem then you have another possibility-the pick up coil.Let me know what happens and if you need more help.
