Taurus or Explorer? if it cranks, its not the starter.(obviosly) check fuel pressure first. If no pressure, be sure you have power at THE FUEL PUMP INERTIA SWITCH. its in the rf kick panel. be sure its not tripped, push in the red button and see if it starts. there are 2 wires, make sure power goes in and out.(both should be HOT, when cranking) If so, the pump is bad.
Look at and around the area of the work done on the alternator.Did someone knock a wire loose?
Check the crank sensor wire and connection on trhe front of the engine if it has one. May be a loose connection to a fuel pump relay? Just do a good visual check.
Hello
The engine
and transmission in this cars drive train are fully
electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM (Power Train
Control Module). Whenever a problem like this occurs the computer
stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions
to this, like the fuel pump, engine coolant temperature sensor and
MAF sensor for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory,
to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned
with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must
perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the
problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL A TRAINED TECHNICAIN
HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO AVOID SPEDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON
PARTS THAT MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM
