Hi guys I have a service van that has been taken out of service & sitting at work since last september. it is a 1993 E250, with the 5.8 engine. Today, I put a charge in the battery & it would not fire. Pulled a couple plugs. They were a bit wet with fuel. I checked for spark, & it had nothing. The van was running great when parked last fall, but does have a pile of miles on it. (218,000) I was thinking maybe I fried something with the battery charger? Initially the battery was completely discharged, & I put the charger in "Start" mode, the first time to see if it would crank. The dome lights were very bright in that mode. Maybe a bit much for the ignition system?
Anyway, I am not too sure what to look at first. I was hoping there was a comon issue with these vans. Or at least a common way to trouble shoot it.
Thanks!
