I might have the answer for you.
I had a similar problem with a Ford, in this case a Mercury.
The mechanism inside the steering column wore out, and caused this very thing.
Because of it's age, I chose not the purchase a new steering column, but I think it was not available anyway.
I installed a used one out of a salvage yard that was not worn out. God bless your efforts.

Takes two people. Block the wheels, climb under the car and check the linkage.

Sounds like the first gear in the automatic transmission is out.

it sounds like either the torque converter solenoid is stuck or the torque converter itself is bad

When you experience this problem, check to see if your brake lights are coming on. It could be as simple as a brake light switch malfunction. If the brake lights are functioning as the problem is occurring then you could for example have a problem with the shift interlock solenoid.

your Transmission is controlled by a cable on the mustang. it could have Came off of the transmission. it just snaps on to a lever on the transmission. or the cable broke. other wise it came unhooked from your shifter.

check over all enigne mounts
check select cable /linkages
adjust the safety switch

I have a 1997 ford mustang v6. It starts up for like a split second then dies out. Just replaced the fuel filter.

check your emergancy brake. also have you done a brake job on it? if so is that when the problem started?
