86 Thunderbird 2.3liter Turbo Coupe 86,000 Miles. I am having problems with my car not starting especialy in the evenings, but when I get home in the mornings it will start fine with no problems. I have replaced fuel pump, fuel pump relay, fuel filter, and still nothing is working right. I have full spark and fuel. I am getting no codes.
