97 ford explorer limited changed fuel pump and filter and preasure relelay valve car still having starting issues can start cold and drive 20 mins and shut car of and it well have a hard time starting and...

I have a 98 explorer and had a similar problem. It wound up being bad spark plug wires. So I changed them and the spark plugs while I was at it. It ran great and still does. I'm not sure if that's your problem I would need more information.

I changed the engine oil, filter and spark plugs in my 1999 Volvo 940 (1996 cc). Upon starting up, the engine runs at lower rpm and "hiccups" at idling.

Engine stalls or RPM fluctuates at idle up and down.

This problem is commonly caused by a dirty automatic idle speed control valve and throttle valve but always run a OBD2 fault code as well as the cleaning procedure. Buy a can of throttle valve cleaner (do not use carburetor spray cleaner!) from NAPA or Carquest (made by CRC chemicals) and spray it into the air intake while the engine is running, use up about 1/2 the can, engine will try to stall hold the speed up, shut it down and let it soak for 30 minutes, restart and blow out the remaining fluid, shut it down and disconnect the negative battery cable for 5 Min's to reset the base idle control

1999 Mazda I changed the battery and spark plugs everytime i driver it for a good min it shuts off and wont start unless I let it sit for about 30 mins will not stay krunk need some advice

This could be several possible causes. If possible I would find out what the spark plugs looked like when they were pulled from the engine. Since you had the radiator changed assuming that diagnosis was correct for the overheating you may or may not have more severe internal problems with the engine. Start with what the spark plugs looked like and possibly what the present spark plugs look like.

My car will start hard ln cold weather20d cranks for long time starts then after couple min runs fine starts fine rest of day

I would start by changing spark plugs, if you haven't changed them in a while. If it has been wet there, raining frequently, then maybe spark plug wires too. That would maybe make sense why once it warms up and drys out it will start ok. I am not sure whether Subaru has the typical fuel pump problem or not, on my vehicle that I once had I turned the key on several times to cycle the fuel pump and my car seemed to start better. If that helps, it is just telled you that you better get the fuel pump replaced. Please rate my answer so I get points for it.

1986 MR2 manual NA shuts off while driving (not clutch/technique)

I would look more to the fuel pump failing than plug wires.

Jeep runs for a minute or two and losses it's spark for 45 min

Sounds like you need to Replace the Ignition Module.
It is a square box located on the side of your fender wall when you lift the hood approx 6 by 8 inch flat box shaped.
Go to auto store and they can show you a pic of it.
It Controls Spark plug Firing.
hope that helped
