Won't Start
 

Have a 2002 Mustang GT. Have not driven in approx. 2 months. Now, it cranks, but will not start. Inspected throttle body after cranking, and could find no evidence of fuel.

Any info would be apprecialted.

need more info. Is it cold where you are? Could be water in the lines causing vapor lock? Could have clogged fuel filter, but prob not. Fuel pump could be bad. Turn the key to the acc position with your driver door open and listen underneath the car for the fuel pump whine.It should prime itself for about 3-4sec when you do this with they. It will be a humming noise. In the trunk there will be a red button behind the carpet. Make sure that is pressed in. That's your auto fuel shutoff. Could have popped because of a clogged filter or low fuel causing a burned pump.

Sorry, in my haste to post, I neglected to mention that I have checked the fuel shutoff. It does not seem to be tripped. The red button seems to be all the way in. The tank is full, and the fuel filter probably only has 2-3K miles on it.

I don't think the pump is running. I will check more tonight. We have not had any cold weather here.

Thanks,

Joe

This evening I tried to listen for the fuel pump. It does not seem to be coming on. I looked through the fuse box for a fuse, but since my owner's manual was stolen a couple of years ago, I had to stop & look online. I have found an online version, but cannot find one that specifically states "fuel pump", just a couple that say "engine control".

I will try looking at them with a meter tomorrow.

If anyone knows if there is a specific fues, that would be helpful.

Thanks.
