One would assume it would log fault codes if its having CKP issues as well, as thats a no-start condition.

We're talking a BA/BF here, maybe its not that smart to log this sort of stuff if its an intermittent problem.

You can get 'pocket' oscilloscopes pretty cheap these days, its a good way to verify if a sensor is working correctly.

In future, use genuine Ford stuff for sensors if you can still get your hands on them, have had all sorts of dramas with aftermarket CKP in the past with them lasting about 5 minutes, been burnt too many times on that **** so genuine only for me.
Thanks. CKP faults should throw a code, have heard it happening on the F150 forums.

Too scared to touch the ECU, have heard some bad stories of these aging B series ECUs going kaputz :P

I was looking for the motorcraft CMPs but couldn't find any here, so go the GOSS ones. Only to find out recently that RockAuto stocks motorcraft parts! And gets delivered here cheap!
