2001 Se Station Wagon starts momentarily, then it turns over, but wont fire.
If I leave it sit for a few hours, the same thing occurs.

Does this sound like a fuel module problem ?  I would like to get an idea
what is wrong before I tow it to a dealer

Yup. But the only way to know for sure is to run the code diagnostics, which
means a dealer or well-equipped repair shop.

it sounds very probable that it is the fuel module.it probably doesn't have
enough pressure to prime when cold.a more common occurance with these
vehicles and the fuel module is for them to stall on tight right
turns-ie:on a cloverleaf getting a a hwy and when the weather is very hot
and humid.

Had the vehicle towed to a Ford Dealer...     Just got a call from them that
it was the fuel module, and it would be covered by special warranty.
However it cost  $50 for the tow.
