First, if you have a fuel pressure guage, attach it to the connector on the fuel rail and turn the ignition to on position.

If no pressure:

1. you should be able to hear the fuel pump running when you first turn the ignition to on position. It will run until adequate pressure is reached as determined by the fuel pressure sensor. This will be only a short period of time. The best way to do this is after the ignition has been off for at least 1 minute, giving the fuel pressure time to drop. In a quiet environment, turn the ignition to on. You should be able to hear the low hum of the fuel pump motor located in the fuel tank. You might even want to listen from the trunk area as you turn on the ignition.

2. If you hear the pump, change the fuel filter and check for any other blockage of the fuel line.

3. If you don't hear the pump, check all fuses and relays that control the electrical flow to the pump.

4. Replace the fuel pump motor.

Why would a 1999 Mercury Grand Marquis start but then stall right away?

Likely the fuel filter is clogged so you need to change it. If you can keep the engine running by pumping throttle a few times at start up, and then it runs, check the filter; cost about $10.00.
