My friends 1992 E150 6 cylinder van just quit on him while driving on the freeway. While trying to start the engine the engine barely cranks over but if I jumped the Starter Solenoid it would crank over really good but even with the Key in the run position it would not start and run. I replaced the Ignition Switch and Starter Solenoid but that was no help. It is still the same (although slightly better due to the new contacts). I will try to check the codes when I get back out there today. Does anyone have any ideas other then the battery? The battery checks out on a load tester although the voltage does drop to about 8 volts while cranking so I am going to be trying a new battery just in case that is the issue. It seems to me, that it took 9V minimum so fire an electronic ignition. We have been trying to use a battery charger with a start feature.
In any case, I cant do a KOER test because we cant get the engine running. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Joe
