I think that it is one of two things T.P.S. has a dead spot in it. Or the fuel pressure regulator is bad. You did not state what engine size that you have so I can not give to you the Specs. on your fuel pressure so that you can test it. The fuel pressure regulator runs off of vacuum when you hit the gas with your foot the throttle body opens up, in turn you lose vacuum and it ... Read More...

Written by: sacdon1 on Apr 15, 2008 11:38 AM

I'm reading the no-start is a fuel pump relay going bad. when you turn the ignition key to run position you should be hearing a humming sound, the fuel pump turning. try vibrating the relay with another person in the car with key in on position. the censis is the relay solder joints are breaking away from the metal posts.
