OK lets start with this..

I am guessing that when you say possion you are meaning you gear selector and when you put it in say drive.

If that is the case.....

Your problem is most likely the fuel pump relay or fuel pump itself.
Start with checking, or have it checked, the fuel pressure at the fuel rail.

If the pressure is low then a fuel pump can be suspect. There are then other test which have to be performed to see where the exact problem is.

Gas release in ford tempo 1986

There isn't one. You have to pull the fuel pump fuse or relay. Start the car and let it run out of gas to relieve the pressure. All I do is loosen the nut at the fuel rail or fuel filter with a cloth/rag around it to keep it from spraying on me.

You fill it until the fluid leve is in the cross hatch imprint on the transmission dipstick. Make sure the fluid has reached at least 175 F before you make the final level check.
