Does anyone have any advice/help/similar issues?

Asked by BuiltNotBought96GT Sep 15, 2020 at 08:48 AM about the 1996 Ford Mustang GT Coupe RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

So, yesterday i changed my intake manifold
gaskets and throttle body gaskets on my 96
mustang gt (don’t think has anything to do with the
problem, just putting it out there) but after
everything was going smoothly car was running
stronger. but later i go to drive it and while drive it
starts being very hesitant, doesn’t want to
accelerate, cutting in and out, so i try to just hurry
and get where i was going and my rpm and oil
gauge randomly stopped working then my mph
gauge stopped working and i was at a stop sign on
a little hill and put it in 1st and tried taking off and
didn’t even have enough power to catch 1st and go
just kept cutting in and out worse and i couldn’t
move much. then car died in middle of the road at
the stop sign, thought maybe was low of fuel
(wasn’t the issue) , thought maybe battery got
drained, jump started it immediately even with a
bad connection so don’t think it’s battery. thinking
it’s either fuel pump , alternator , bad injector
connection, or something electronical, any advice?

I'm having problems myself that's why I'm here. My car won't start but I verified that it's not an ignition problem. I know it's a fuel problem. I removed the fuel lines from the fuel pressure regulator and there's no fuel. I'm goin to the fuel filter and see if there's any blockage. I replaced the fuel pump about five and a half years ago, I can't believe that's the problem. I'd say check and see if you're getting any fuel to the fuel injectors.
