I have replaced the ignition module and coil for my 1989 ford escort twice. It stalls when I'm driving it in the morning and will not turn on again untill I keep trying and trying, then it will run good for the rest of the day until the next morning again. It's doing it again! I'm frustrated! What should I do next? Thanks

Have you checked to see if your missing spark or fuel when this happens. Try adding some fuel throttle cleaner to see if it will restart of that. This will tell you if its a spark or fuel problem

My mechanic said it has good fule pressure but I think it may be the fuel pump. What do you think?

If the fuel psi is good stay away from the pump. You need to know if its spark or a inject or puls. Problem. Test this and let me know what's missing when its not starting.
