ok took it to the ford dealer today and suprise suprise they didnt figure it out either and they said they had their best techs on it and they were totally confused by it because it did eventualy start for them and like i said when it does start it runs perfect but once u shut it off it dont wanna start back up they seem to think it might have something to do with the alarm i have on it so i guess ill try taking it out or dissabling it and see what i come up with!

Those alrams are notorious for screwing up, should have thought of that myself... Let us know what they find out. At least it wasn't really simple and made all of us feel stupid!

took the alrm out and i did eventualy get it fired up but it stil has the problem it seems to try and fire at the same second i let off the starter, makes me think that the starter is drawing to much power from some other component and there off not starting, i am going to try using another battery to run only the starter and the other battery to run only the the truck itself if it does fire right up it gives me a good excuse to have dual batteries. i will still have no idea what the problem is but its worth a shot!
