first, here is what happened. Monday, I left my office and the car took a couple tries to start. Made it to the gas station to fill up and took about 10 mins to get started. Once I got home I have not been able to get it to start.
I replaced the coil pack and I do have a spark there. I am getting ready to check the spark plugs and wires, but they should be good as I just replaced them about 6 months ago.
Since I replaced the coil pack, it has been close to starting but just wont. I am thinking of replacing the fuel filter, but i heard on a radio show (goss' garage on 106.7 wjfk) that there was a mustang with a similar problem and he suggested replacing the ignition module that fords in that time frame have that type of problem
Is that possibly what the problem is I am having? Should I replace it? or is it something with the fuel injection like a clogged filter? any help or suggestions is very helpful.
I do have a second smaller problem, but not as pressing right now, any time I am running the car and turn to the right it sounds like the car turns into a nascar car as it gets louder, but to the left it is quiet. My neighbor had a similar problem with his escort and a mechanic put some oil in the shocks and struts casing and it quit making the noise, would that work in this case as well?
