91 escort only runs when i pump the gashal97321 03-09-2009, 10:52 PM this car has been sitting for about 6 mo now, when i start the car i have to constantly pump the gas pedal, it sounds like it is running just like a car should when you pump the gas. but when i stop pumping it dies. It was working fine when i got it then it just died. i thought it was the valves that froze it up so i replaced them. put the motor back together and here it sits. now its making a clicking sound when i try to start it. doesnt turn over and is not the battery i tryed using good ones, and jumping. this is an easy fix though i would really like to know what is wrong with the injector. I also had the throttle positioner replaced, didn't make any diffrence. If this has ever happened to you or if you know how to fix this i could really use some help. mightymoose_22 03-10-2009, 02:45 AM If you know the battery is good, bench test the starter. For the fuel problem verify that your electric fuel pump is working as well as the pressure regulator. tripletdaddy 03-15-2009, 01:43 AM Sounds like a fuel supply problem. Change the fuel filter. You may have water and or gunk in the tank and filter from sitting so long. notmeatall2 03-23-2009, 07:51 PM Could also be an electrical problem.
