THE PROBLEM IS THE IAC VALVE THAT IS THE RESPONSABLE OF CONTROLING THE IDILING

2001 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor cranks but wont stay on unless your giving it gas. I put my ear to the gas tank and can here a clicking sound. Could it be the could it be a fuse, fuel pump...

No if it starts but you have to keep your foot on the gas to keep it running and then it dies when you take your foot off the pedal the fuel pump is working otherwise no gas at all if it was not working the throttle position sensor is bad the contact in the sensor is worn out at idle spot but when you first star it the sensor is in a different position and with your foot on the gas you can keep it running right racing like a normal engine but if no gas peddle it won't run if you just turn the key to start like normal but there's also a possibility that the idle air control valve is shot to both are on the throttle body you can look at them at rockauto.Com I'm assuming that your using premium gas and your throttle body is clean if not clean it out and see what happens before you spend $$$ on parts and check all your vacuum lines

1992 Ford thunderbird turns over but wont start, fuel pump wont shut off

Sounds like the relay located in the trunk behind the driver side carpet panel is sticking on. Contacts are burnt and causing fuel pump to keep running. Tap relay with a screwdriver handle and if it starts, replace the relay.

I got a 97 ford thunderbird lx when i try and srart it it turns over but wont start?

sounds lie a bad fuel pump. replace your fuel filter first, if that doesnt work then you may need to drop the fuel tank to get the pump out.

My 86 thunderbird starts and if i keep my foot on the thorttle it stays running but dies when i take my foot off the throttle

I'd be thinking of changing IAC valve that controls your idle. Clean the port(s) out good with throttle body cleaner when you get valve off too.

97 ford thunderbird

U are going to have to pull the gas tank out and replace the fuel pump inside the tank, this is common when you run the gas completely out, the pump is cooled by the gas it runs in, if u run it low allot it burns out the pump bearings very quickly.
