starts then quits

Feb 11, 2007 3 Replies

My 98 cobra will start and run for about 5 minutes then quit, it will fire right back and do the same thing. It will quit while going down the road too but will start right up again. Does anyone have any ideas of what could be wrong? Thanks



First thought, fuel filter....

First thought would be fuel delivery. For a simple (but unlikely) answer, unscrew the filler cap. That's usually too simple for my luck, though. After that would be a failing pump, or a clogged filter.

I am probably making the job harder than it is because I have not checked the fuel filter, that I will do next. I will update and let you know if that does the job. Thanks!
