Default It took me 3 months... I finaly got it goin'!

Well,
It took me three months (and well over $300), but I've finally found what's wrong with my '87 LX. It's a combination of a junk battery and the fuel pump. I went and got a new pump ($109) and tomorrow my dad and I are going to put it in. Then all it will need is an $80 battery and new fuel tank straps and it'll be good to go. Thanks to all the people who have given me such good advice the last three months, with out all of you, I would have given up hope long ago.

Congrats in figuring it out. At least you found the problem before it cost you to much time and money.

Make sure you get a new fuel neck filler grommet, it always needs replacing after you pull the fuel tank..get one at a Ford dealership, about $30
