It"s not a good look pushing a Ford off to the side off the road Could anyone also tell me where the fuel pump is?

no it's not that,it hasn"t been washed for about 3 months. I was told it could have something to do with the fuel maybe

does your oil light slowly beam on and off? mine did this after a washing and yeh it stuttered too, a good run got it all hot and it stopped. But you aint washed it
ignition leads all in securely? Wires to the fuel pump all in tact and not being sliced by bodywork? any fuses blown? all the wires to the transmission intact? (havent got it snagged on a 'missile stick') Is there anything else acting up?

Everything seams fine when it is going, it can be fine one day and crap the next.It just dies when driving, or at a red light.

Check that battery connectons are good..Including neg battery to engine or body to engine...
Leads, plugs and cap... Suspect fuel relay ??? TFI = thick film ignition its that electronic part where the dissy plug is on dissy.... Check coil connections... Check that there is no fault in imobiliser? Or inside fuse.... Clean and check idle speed control... IAC Disconnect it ...Adjust idle... then re- fit connectiopn... Or just turn idle up alittle.. The fuel pump can be got at through boot but you need to undo long hose clamp that goes around the thread....
