so this morning I was getting ready to leave and started my car and two seconds later it died, I tried to start the car again several times and wouldnt start.
car has gas a little more than half way ..>>is a 91 mustang 5.0 standard<<
BUT I always pump 91 and yesterday I was short and pumped 87
made it to work and back home safe with no issues at all until this morning
I get fuel pressure, fuel filter is good & clean
& it started again after several push starts but dies again ![[Confused]](confused.gif)
does the swtich of fuel has to do anything?
thanks for your time and see how it turns out any help? thanks ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

Yea it will do it when the car warms up I think it's two screws holding the module on the distributer got to pull the distributer first though it's like an uncommon size like 5.5 mm if I remember right try that first
