Lee---It could be an ignition problem----Check for fire to plugs---If you have fire,loosen air cleaner nut and pour 2-3 oz of fuel into center recess and let it run down ---tighten nut and try starting----If it starts your problem could be the fuel pressure switch or in-tank pump pressure is low----check F S M for how to procede----car will NOT run without air cleaner on and tight------Mike Popp----82 FS Imperial with EFI

 I added an extra ground wire to the module
on the passenger fender,looks kind of like an Ignition module.

 

Is that the Module people talk about?There is a relay next to it also.

 

  I got the car to start today,let it run one minute,shut it off;
then tried to restart it,it wouldn't start.

 Unhooked all the relays,one at a time,and replugged them in to make sure all
connections were tight.Let it sit for 20 mins,and it started up,ran good.
 
 I let the car run about 10 mins,till the thermostat had opened,and made sure the engine was warm.

 I turned the car around in the driveway,turned it off,tried to restart it,and no luck.

 :(

 I can hear the intank fuel pump running.
