Then we did this about 15 more times thinking that there was air or something in the fuel line and she kept doing this. Any ideas on what might be wrong with it?

You'd think in this situation that there'd be Check Engine/Service Engine dash light! You don't mention that. Of course, it doesn't run but a few seconds. Try a code reader/scanner to see if you have any codes. A start/stall should throw some kind of code.

There is no sense to drag it all the way over to Ford leave it there for a week or so to have them put in a new sensor that we already have. Especially when most of the time they are clueless and have no cue what they are talking about lol.
