2000 Ford Explorer, 4.0L SOHC will crank over but wont idle, tried jumping it, seemed to work slightly, but idled for a moment then the rpms dwindled down to 0 and it shut off and would try to start but wouldn't idle again. Any ideas what could be wrong? Its currently sitting on the side of the highway.

Fuel pump? Fuel filter? At 22 years, could be several things.

harmonic balancer pulled apart?

So far we know its not the battery or alternator, or a fuel issue, looking into throttle position sensor now and will see what i can find out about the harmonic balancer
