351 windsor wont start

i want to buy a bronco from a friend with a 93 351 windsor from a mustang and it runs now and then but wont get enough fuel to the engine. they replaced all fuel components but the pump and a mechanic said it was a crank case sensor or something. any ideas?

I don't think any 1993 Mustangs came with a 351 Windsor engine.

If the engine is not getting enough fuel, I would check the pump first. Put a pressure gauge on the fuel rail and turn the key on to see if the pump builds up 40 psi in the 2 seconds that it comes on. If so, does the pressure drop quickly?

Was the fuel filter changed as well?
