my 95 gt runs, but then turns off and the check engine light comes on and the car wont start for a hr or 2, this morning i started it and went to get gas, on the way there it just turned off, i couldnt even pop the clutch to get it going again, about an hr later it started, but 10 min after that the same thing happen, wft is going on stang land

when it won't start are you saying it'll crank just not start?? if so check to see if it has spark or lack there of as well as fuel, cary a spark checker and a can of spray start and when the prob occurs you can quickly find out what the prob is

its happening right now, it will crank just not start, and the check engine light is on, i just replaced the distr, and all spark plugs, so i dont think thats it, my fuel pump is turning on but i dont know if its bad or what,

mjr46

so do you have spark down at the plugs and fuel pump turning on doesn't mean you have volume / pressure...never assume things are good in the world of troubleshooting.......spray some ether in the TB..if it fires up briefly = fuel issue..if not then check for spark

i spay it in where the intake hooks up..

mjr46

correct

ryval124

okay,ill try it out and let you know what happens

mjr46

if that doesn't start the car briefly grab a used spark plug and pull a plug wire off down on a plug and insert the used plug and while someone cranks the car over, ground the tip of the electrode and see if spark jumps the gap
