Just bought a 1991 Ford E150 Van. Driving home with the fuel selector on the front tank, it died, so switched to the rear tank and restarted and drove home (50 miles). No problems, ran fine. Next morning, started fine and drove 20 miles, shut the engine off for 5 Min., restarted, drove for one minute and died,...restarted and drove home OK. Replaced the front canister fuel filter last night...This morning it cranked for a while, then started...ran for a minute then died. Tried to restart but the starting action seemed rough and it never did catch hold. Any ideas??? Thanks Guys

The shut-off switch is probably mounted n the inside firewall just above your feet if you are sitting in the passenger seat. It is a black box about 4 inches long. Has a red button in the top off it. May also be in the passenger side kick panel on the right
To check if fuel pump find this plug under the hood on the right or left side. This plug has two pins on top and 4 pins on the bottom. Place a jumper wire between the top and bottom far right pins holding the plug with the two pins on top. Turn key on and go to back and see if pump is running. This by passes the fuel pump relay.
