Why would a 1991 Ford Probe only start if in neutral then eventually not start at all?

It will only start in neutral because it was designed to only start in neutral. Why would anybody want start a vehicle while in gear?

are you sure its fuel cut out? my probe would not start traced problem to electronics inside distributor had failed [common fault on probe]

Probably the neutral safety switch, either faulty or out of adjustment.

Roothpaste has to be neutral Ph. If it were an acid or a base, it would eventually dissolve the teeth

A missed adjusted neutral safety switch, or a faulty one.

Many reasons, but a common one is a faulty neutral safety switch, try starting it in neutral.

Mass airflow sensor is dirty or needs replaced. Try that first.

My guess would be a plugged fuel filter.

The vehicle would stall when put in gear would be the fuel pump. The fuel pump is very weak which would explain why in neutral the vehicle starts if it gear it would have to have more gas.

I would think a Probe owners club is for owners of Ford Probe cars.

the neutral safety switch is thrown

This could be caused by a multitide of problems, but I would check for a bad or loose ground strap on the engine first. It is normal to have to shift to park or neutral to start your engine. If it is only neutral and not park, I would start troubleshooting the safety switch.

there is no neutral safety switch on 79 accords. I had 2 of them and I would start it in 1st gear alot when the clutch was stuck engaged. Dave

Have the neutral safety switch checked. Pop the hood, hold a key across the screw posts on the solinoid. it should start......make sure ignition is on and truck in Neutral.

The plant would lose its color and eventually start to wither.

If it was kept in the fridge for a while, it would start to have mould on the actual skin or if it was kept not in a fridge it would do the same process as above; it would eventually start to have mould.

One day i would like to probe the bottom of the ocean!

The neutral safety switch is a switch that essentially disables the ability to start the vehicle if its not in park or neutral (or in the case of a standard, if the clutch is not fully depressed). It is as the name implies, a safety feature, to prevent you from trying to start the vehicle while it is in gear (which would cause it to lurch forward.

Assuming we are talking automatic transmissions, you would use park or neutral to start the engine but neither one are gears.

it could be a number of things but the usual causes are the neutral safety switch or an "open" in the starting circuit or simply a bad conection,at battery or starter. Try putting your vehicle in neutral and then try turning it on.if is manual transmission instead of the neutral safety switch it would be the clutch start switch.

It'll warm up, start to boil and eventually evaporate.

First start would be to check the antifreeze and if that is full then I would check into the Thermostat and make sure it is stuck. If it is Full and heats up real fast then my guess would be the thermostat.

i there a switch on a saturn that would cause it not to start Yes the neutral safety switch.

The vehicle would start from being cold every time with no problem. After the vehicle had been running for any length of time it would not start (sometimes), the radio would not work, but the ac, door bells and lights and doorlooks would work. Also, the problem was not consistent. The vehicle would start repeatedly with no problem and then wouldn't start after it had been running. At first it appeared to be the neutral…

Just make sure the gear stick is in neutral and the hand brake (parking brake) is on. Then try to jump start it as you would do with an automatic car.

Eventually you would start bleeding from every orephus in your body, and this would probably be your best sign of having Ebola.

I would replace the neutral safety switch; Buy it from the Ford dealer where they can print out the picture of it along with its location. I hope this helps you. Mark

sounds like you need to replace the neutral safety switch. ignore the next answer i had the same problem with my 89 ford probe i just out it in park revd it up and it would go away but sometimes i had to hit the transmission with a hammer

It might depend on the vehicle and transmission in question, but usually a transmission fault, of any kind, will have little or no impact on the engine's ability to start. With a transmission solenoid problem, you may not be able to make the car move, but it should still start. About the only, transmission related problem that would prevent the engine from starting would be a faulty neutral safety switch, or maybe a faulty brake…

There is no set limit but the referee will eventually step in and start cautioning for misconduct, which would eventually result in a send off.

President Woodrow Wilson in 1914 proclaimed that America would be neutral and not enter the world war in Europe (today that war in called World War 1). Eventually, America did have to enter the war, but in its early years, most Americans were opposed to doing that.

there would be a lot of herbivores and eventually all the herbivores would have eaten most of the grass and some would start dying

it says that electrons keep emiting energy when orbiting, this eventually causes lose of energy and the atom would collapes. It also lacked neutral particles, or neutrons.

Sounds to me like the neutral safety switch may be the culptrip. Not exactly sure where it is. Is this a floor shift or column shift? Will the engine try to start? in other words, does the starter engage? If not, then I would suspect the neutral safety switch. If the starter engages, but the engine won't start, then probably another issue.

a mechanic told me it could be the neutral security switch on the clutch if it is a straight drive

In a third gen, this would indicate that the neutral safety interlock (installed on the shifter, inside the console) is out of adjustment, is bypassed, or has failed.

Yes, year model 93 thru 97 Ford Probe

Depending on how long you plan on keeping the probe in orbit or if you want it to return, it is estimated to cost approximately $15

If i understand correctly when you have the clutch lever pulled in and try to kick start it the kick start spins freely. I also have that same issue it has to be in neutral with clutch let out then kick it over, maybe a safety thing

bad water pump bad water pump check and see if the fan works too.

according to my calculations, i would say that the combination of these is positive. neutral is neutral.

How and/or why would that happen? It is neutral. Not positive or negative. They will attract their opposites. Not a neutral item. Neutral is not a charged item.

Complementary base pairing occurs only between the probe and the target gene.

Many asteroids are not massive enough to cause a strong gravitational pull on a probe or a person.

It would not be normal for CO2 to leak into your house, if it did you would start to feel breathless and if you did not leave and the concentration built up you would eventually suffocate.

A solution is neutral when it has a pH of 7.

Gender neutral prayers are prayers which do not give God a gender. For instance, a lot of prayers start out with "Our Heavenly Father," so to make them gender neutral, you would say "Our Creator" or "Dear God." Gender neutral prayers most likely do not refer to Jesus or "God the Son" either, nor mention a Goddess or Mother Earth. Gender neutral prayers would be more common among Pagans/Witches, feminists, and members of the LGBT…

Dead battery? Loose or corroded battery cables? Bad starter? Bad starter solenoid? Bad neutral Switch?

Very doubtful that an oxygen sensor would do that.

The ignition switch in my wife's 98 accord went bad a few month ago. The car would randomly shut off while driving, then it wouldn't start back up for another 15 mins or so. It would crank, but not start. It's an automatic. To diagnose that the ignition switch was bad, I had the car in gear (D), turned the key to the "start" position. The car is not going to start until I put…
