3.8 Running rough

I have a 1996 Ford Mustang The engine quit. Replaced engine with a new engine. The car runs rough. At start up, the engine revs high then levels off to normal then starts to die. If gas is given then the engine is running ok. While driving you can feel it stumble. If you need to come to a stop, it may stall out or stumble real bad. At low RPM's the engine will stumble. All electrical was checked, Supposedly the fuel preasure is normal. Any thoughts?

SOURCE: 1993 Ford Festiva Engine won't stay running

Just a little suggestion. IF this is a 1993 it is fuel injected.the car starts and runs for a few seconds and then dies. You are on the right track by checking the spark and fuel delivery. If you have both of these when it dies i would check injector pulse. the use of a noid light would be the quickes method.They can be purched at the parts house for pretty cheep.If you have no injector pulse then it cuts the fuel off to the engine.Replace the ignition module (contols spark and injector pulse) i have ran across a few that will lose only one of the outputs, insted of both of them. Now if you have fuel and fire, i would check to see if the cat. converter is damaged or cloged thus restricting the exhaust and stalling the engine. Hope this helpes.

Mustang ran hot now starts but engine sounds rough, still running hot

this could be a number of problems , firstly with engine running remove radiator cap see if large bubbles of air appear, blown head gasket. second depending how long engine is running before temp rises to overheating, thermostat. third, O2 sensor could be damaged this will cause rough running and slight increase in engine temp.(unlikely if idles well) fourthly damaged valves (inlet/exhaust)
