so..
drove the car up to the store yesterday, no problems whatsoever. went back out to the car about an hour later to start it up to pull it into the garage and it wont start.
was getting no noise from the fuel pump and the CEL was staying on (checked CEL and got no blinks or anything) so i figured it was my main relay. had a spare that's been bouncing around in my glovebox for a couple years so i swapped it out..
first key turn got same thing. second time it kicked on the pump, CEL went away and she started up as normal. turned the car off and tried again and nothing. tried a few repeated times getting nothing then all of a sudden it kicked on like normal..
went back out today and got nothing till the 5th or 6th try and started the car once it did work. let it warm up for about 20 mins then shut it off. now i'm getting nothing..
should i go get a new relay or could this be the ECU or fuel pump?? any ideas??
