stalling problem
I've got a 1990 E-150 with a 351 engine dual tanks. I've checked the
switches and wiring. I do know the pump in the center tank is bad and the center tank has some kind of black gunk in it. Here's the problem... It'll start alright at any temperature and run for a while. Then all of a sudden, while driving down the highway, it'll start cutting out and stalling. It'll do this for about 5 minutes and start smoothing out then a little while later it starts up again. Lately I've noticed it's getting worse and completely dying. After sitting a minute or two, it'll start right up again but start cutting out again a few miles down the road. I had a fuel pump fail on me in another vehicle several years ago and this feels just about the same except it eventually gets me home. Could it be the rear tank pump? the external pump? relays? module? or is something else amiss? |

My old partner had this exact problem, and spent a couple thousand in BS
repairs and more on car rentals. The ****teaux dealership replaced all kinds of crap. Finally found partially plugged fuel lines...Sometimes 100% plugged, other times let a little fuel through. Another dealership nightmare. |
