I have a 1992 mustang and it just all of a sudden wouldnt start back, it starts then quits, if you let it set a lil bit it will run for about 30 secs then quit. I replaced the fuel pump today and drove it 2 miles to the car wash cut it off and got in it and fires it up, it started then quit once again. Now what!

Start by verifying the actual fuel pressure with a gauge if its within specs and also check the fuel filter and pump relay-let me know what you got, if you want me to continue-

Idk what the actual fuel pressure is but more than likely if its a brand new fuel pump wouldnt it have enough fuel pressure? Like I said it started and ran good for about 10 mins then it wouldnt start back, it would start then quit thats it. Idk what to do now nothing seems to work

Though its new don't mean its good there's such thing as manufacturers defects-check the fuel pressure with a gauge and then comeback w/the readings and we'll further assist you-we need this information.
