It is a 95 thunderbird with a v6 engine and around 100,000 miles on it. After the car has run for awhile when you shut it off the engine will not start again for a few hours.

Sounds like it maybe a sensor gone bad.

I'm with Rayhut. Sounds like a bad crankshaft position sensor. Does it have spark when it does not start?

Good luck and post back. :)

Do you hear the fuel pump running when the key is first turned to the on position?

Good luck and let us know. :)

Yes the fuel pump is running. I am starting to suspect the problem may be with the ECM unit and I am taking it to be checked out.
