SOURCE: 1991 lincoln towncar died while driving,not getting fuel.
try resetting the fuel pump inertia switch located in the side of the trunk.

I'm having a similar problem with my ford. By the sounds of it you have a fuel delivery problem, either clogged fuel filter or bad fuel pump (there are other issues that can cause this problem). Steps will have to be taken to try and narrow the problem down. i.e. check for spark, fuel pressure. Have someone turn the key over while you listen near the tank, if you hear a whining or similar noise this usually means your fuel pump is working.

Since you've already had a smart aleck response from someone wich was probalby quite helpful! and you are obviously rather frustrated i would probably start( assuming you do mean that it wont turn over when it rains out ) by finding a manual release these cars are usaully equipment with them for sitiuations like these. next time it does this use a multimeter to see if you do in fact have voltage at the battery. Before it happens again i would probably try pulling all of my ground as well as power cables first to see if they are tight, next to see if there is a lot of corrosion at the battery and where it hooks in at the front of the car especially where the positive goes into your fuse panel computer supply (dont forget grounds there should be one going from the battery to the frame and one to the motor)when you have them apart clean them with a wire brush and use die-elecric grease to assure good positive connections. You should also have a load test done on the battery(wich is free at autozone and advance auto) because if you have a cell going bad or already bad sometimes thet can do some pretty weird thingsand a battery is usaually pretty cheap insurance. If it is in the ignition it is most likely either a distributor cap because these are notorious for wicking moisture if they are not sealed 100% correctly, or you have a problem with your ignition control module (wich autozone and advance test free also, on most models) the other test you can do yourself is a drain test this will tell you if you have a short somewhere in the system allowing it to stay on consistently killing your battery sporadically, pull the negative terminal put a test light between the battery ground and the terminal do not recconect the terminal if the test light lights up you have a problem have an assistant pull the fuses in the fuse block until the light goes out, now you have isolated the culprit and can have someone experienced with car electronics fix your problem. I know how weird electronics can be, so i hope i have been of some assistance. If you have any more questions just ask when you review my response chris

Try taking the exhaust pipe loose at the manifold. I had a Chevy Suburban that acted the same way, it turned out to plugged catyletic converter. The converter wasn't letting the exhaust out, the truck had no power, it would stall and then start right up and great for about five seconds the run rough and quit. Once I disconnected the exhaust it started right up and ran great. You could also try taking the O2 sensors out (for test purposes) ahead of the converter that will give the exhaust a place to go
