Hello all,

I have a 99 3.2v6 auto that is having some driving problems. Yesterday on the way home it just stopped running and wouldn't start back up. It cranked but that was it, so i got it home and disconnected the battery. This morning I re-connected it and it started right up. I took it down the road and 6 miles down the road it quit again. I have replaced the fuel filter awhile ago and did the fuel guage fix. but the gas guage is acting up again after 6 months. I don't know if it is the fuel pump or something else. any help would be appreciated.

Check the fuel line pressure at the fuel rail. A common and not to well discussed problem with just changing the sender is accidentally cutting the internal fuel line when reinstalling the pump.

Also check the fuel back pressure regulator by pulling the vacuum hose before starting when the engine is cool. If fuel shoots out the regulator, you have a problem.

Also, next time it does it, get out and undo/reinstall the gas cap and see if it'll start. Sounds odd; but it seems to have helped others in the past IIRC.
