1994 thunderbird 4.6 v8 212k miles. ok this car recently started to have a stalling problem. pull up to a stop light and it dies. the first time it blew the 20 amp fuse/fuseablelink thin in the under hood box. it is the first one on the right as you are facing the car from the front. that was the only time it blew. now if you take the fuse out and put in a nother one the car will start right back up. otherwize it has to sit for a min or two. the previous owner apperently had a problem with the electric fan because there was a wire conecting the fan to this fuse. that has been removed but the car is still stalling.


any help will be apreciated this is my nabours car and he really needs it for work. sorry for the bad grammer its been a long day.

First off is the check engine light on? And have you had it checked for codes?

Did your car's voltmeter do any jumping or anything when it did this. It sounds like a possible wirring problem. If a sensor is grounding out then it could explaing the stalling and the blowing fuse.
