Perhaps the fuel filter is clogged. They are inexpensive and easy to change. Sounds like a 'fuel delivery' problem, not electrical or other issue.

Testimonial: "The mechanic tinkered around with the fuel delivery system and still could not fix the problem. Can you recommend a mechanic in the Logan,Qld area."

First thing to check out will be the fuel pump relay under the hood. It is the one who drives the pump, so if it is defective the pump will not work either to prime the engine, or to make it run. Secondly, you need to check if the fuel filters are OK cause sometimes they clog up and prevent enough fuel from reaching the engine. Thirdly, check the injector(s) for cloging, and clean or replace them as needed. If none of this helps, then the problem probably has nothing to do with fuel delivery, and the next step to check will be the whole ignition system, which is also one of the most comon bronco problems.

Your either going to have to clean or replace,the actuator motor. If you don't have a scanner,to do an output test,your sort of stuck. System knowledge is the key,when doing your own work.
Someone more familar with your vehicle,may give you a better answer. It maybe a vacuum system,still you most likely will be replacing the offender.

I Ask a Mechanic to change Starter and now most light are dead.

i would say check all the fuses again, both in passenger compartment and under the hood. plus, the mechanic should be responsible for this issue. it also sounds like you battery is not fully charged. i would also suspect, the starter was changed without disconnecting the battery and something was shorted as he installed the starter. good luck

Well i had ignition module replaced new, plugs , wires, and cleared all codes and ran okay but if you kicked in really hard it would cut out like pushing a clutch in. Drove out one night drove ok and ran...

There is a fuel inertia switch..that is the law.. It is located either outside by the connections to the fuel pump or on the pump itself. I doubt that is the problem as you say the pump is pressurizing. May be a security system issue or pcm issue.. GM cars are very sensitive to voltage changes of any type...Take it back to the mechanic.

Having problems starting a 97 GMC Sierra

It almost sounds to me like a timing issue. Did you get it timed properly after the distributer was installed? Another thing is the timing chain. Aim a timing light at the crank marks and see if they are staying in the same place, or jumping around. If they are jumping your timing chain may have jumped, or be badly worn, and will need to be replaced.
