A failed fuel pump.
It could be a dead battery. Its happened to me before because the light in my car stayed on all night and the next day it wouldnt even turn on
Loosen/remove the gas cap… Defective/incorrect aftermarket caps would act like that… If it runs better drive to the Dealer and buy a cap. Those early systems couldn't overcome the vacuum created in the tank by stuck or wrong valve in the cap.
Low fuel pressure?
It loses spark?
it has a 30 year old ignition switch with goobers?
The fuel relay sticks intermittently?
The fuse panel is sick and tired of you releasing the parking brake,
and running hard tires at their max.
Troubles between tanks and the selector valve system?
**** floating around in the fuel rail? Like tiny bassalt rocks?
after it got past the selector valve filter, and the fuel filter?
The selector valve filter bucket is full of the same ****.
it can't get out. When it does travel it returns to the tank.
it came from the tank, the tank is rubbed through, corroded.
Fuel sender return pipe too close to the pickup screen?
especially in high ambient and higher altitude?
Fuel sender is hanging against the tank or baffle inside
fuel reading is false?
Variations of the above.
Trouble around the e-core coil? Or with it.
It needs a stator and a module?
The eec relay opens.intermittent
The inertia switch stops the pump? However, intermittent
Your gas is in uriah's heap?
Complete carter sender and pumps are available in plain packaging
Try asking your counterman to find out.
save some there.
Used selector valves that arent malfunctioning or returning your fuel
are found at these many wrecking yards sometimes.
Recalls were about just about every fuel system part at one time or another.
Testing and familiarity are the winning.
Replacing things cause some guy said
bypasses the testing, that's expensive.
A ford tech would inspect, research, run tests.
Nice if it acts up in the first half hour.
That's only 50 bucks.
Then the testing and inspecting begins!
woohoo, he has been fixing those without full pay since
reagan was president
Oh, intermittent wiring chafed and connector issues.
fusible link issues near a corroded neglected battery.
The bulkhead connector can't take the beating anymore.
The pins fit like socks on a rooster.
There was no skid plate under the front tank when you left the bar
by way of the landscaping ornamentation.
You over tightened the spare and the back tank has a new shape?
Seen em all.
Fix it and surprise me with a new one.
Oh, it loses ground cause some guys brother said "it's just a ground"
so they left one off and didn't tighten the other!
Furreal, dude, this **** really happens!
- What could cause my car to not stay running? I have a 99 ford contour. 4cylinder 2.0L. It cranks but will not stay running unless hitting the gas pedal. No check engine light. New MAF and Camshaft sensors. Got the car in feb and had new plugs and oil change. Could it be a clogged cat?
- Could a clogged fuel filter cause a code P0300 to go off in my 2004 ford taurus? My engine light went on. Got it checked at autozone and P0300 came up. My fuel gauge is also going nuts. I ll put $20 in which would give me a half tank. But I ll start the car and it will be at full, then I ll start the car later that day and it will be at three quarters. It is different literally everytime I start the car… I have no idea how much gas I have.
- What could cause my 95 Ford F150 xl 4.9L I6 to lag or try to die when you give it gas? We have replace a Gas tank and it's fuel pump but the truck is still running rough and loosing power when you drive it. We've also replaced the injectors, I also want to know if the Fuel Pressure Regulator is causing this or if it is the timing that is off on it. Sometimes it refuses to start but it always turns over. There's no way to take off very fast because you have to ease onto the gas to be able to take off without killing it or the truck trying to die.
