WHAT ford escort problems

SOURCE: 1993 ford escort wagon,no electric to injectors

The fuel delivery system uses an electric fuel pump to provide high-pressure fuel to the fuel injectors. The fuel pump is located at the rear of the vehicle, mounted in the fuel tank. It can be accessed by removing the rear seat.

The fuel tubes leading from the fuel tank to the engine are under pressure during vehicle operation. When the engine is turned OFF, the fuel in the fuel tubes remains pressurized for long periods of time to provide quick start-ups. Fuel not used by the fuel injectors during operation is routed back to the fuel tank through the fuel return tube.

The fuel handling components are protected by three fuel filters. A replaceable in-line fuel filter is located inside the engine compartment between the fuel tank and fuel injection supply manifold. A serviceable filter screen is located inside the fuel tank at the fuel pump inlet. A non-serviceable filter screen is incorporated into each fuel injector.

The behaviour you describe is called "hunting"; it's typical of an engine with an over-lean fuel:air mixture.

Check the inlet manifolds as there is an air leak somewhere; typically it's a loose joint, faulty gasket, or a cracked or corroded manifold, do not expect to be able to see any cracks with the naked eye as they are usually barely perceptible hairline fractures.

The brakes are servo assisted and use the lower pressure air in the inlet manifold of the engine when running, so when you use the brakes it puts an additional load on the inlet manifold and forces any intake leaks to allow even more air into the system. This will cause the fuel:air mixture to become far too weak to sustain combustion and the engine will stall.

You'll save yourself a lot of time and headaches if you get the car to a garage which will be able to quickly and accurately diagnose the fault for you. Then you can choose whether to have them make repairs or to do so yourself; if you choose the DIY option then the garage will reasonably expect a payment for the work done to diagnose the fault.
