1991 Dodge Pickup Truck

I am having trouble with my 1991 Dodge Pickup starting. It may start and run for 15 minutes but then shut off and not restart. But sometimes it does not start at all. Moisture appears to be a factor sometimes.

1998 Toyota Camry

My 1998 Toyota Camry has an intermittent problem. When driving, sometimes, about 3 miles, and coming to a stop, I notice the RPM gauge moving from 50 to 100 and seems like its going to stall.

I have a 2003 Honda Odyssey that recently did not run. You can start the engine but the engine will not follow through. We had the car towed to the Honda Dealer. They sent us a diagnosis the following day. They said that there was contamination on the fuel and that is why it would not run.

My 1993 Ford Mustang LX 5.0, with the key on engine off, I can hear the fuel pump running. It will not stop until I turn the key off all so the car will not start. Is the fuel pump causing this?
