I have a 1987 ford bronco 2, I have been having fuel problems. I recently changed my relay switch. After that it would cut off on me. I then changed my fuel filter and it still cut off on me. I checked my lines and found a leak in my cartridge fuel filter. I bypassed it buy adding another fuel filter. The car drive for a while, it cut off on me a couple times, but when I added gas it worked. I was driving when the car was going like it was getting no gas, i parked, the car cut off, then it doesn't start....what can b the problem?????

You should have two fuel pumps, a low pressure one in the tank and a high pressure one under the truck, driver's side.

Both need to be running.

You should have about 35 psi at the fuel rail. If you don't have one, you may be able to borrow a fuel pressure guage at autozone or some other chain parts store.

Thanks......but now its a little different. I put gas in the car, and drove to the gas station to put gas in it. Immediately after I put gas in the car it cut off on me again. But after like two times it stopped and worked fine.then i drive it again twice, and on the third time after putting gas and driving it cut off a couple times. I drove one more time and it did not cut off. So its like its cutting off when it wants to
