Start Problem

[Sonny]

Hi all,
Quick ? besides a small loss in mpg over the last several months X is going strong. A new thing happen 2 times now in the last 2 months. Driving, starting evrytime then get in to start and hit key as normal for quick start and and X does not fire up, try again and will just crank and crank. I wait about 5 minutes and try and all is well, then never a problem until the 2nd time it did it (weeks Later) and then same thing again. What do you think is happening? BTW all filters etc good, pump good also.

Any Ideas?

Thx, Sonny

How do you know the fuel pump is ok? Did you do a fuel pressure test?

Thanks aldive,
I changed the pump about 9 months ago, (thats alot of fun by yourself) symptoms are not the same. I believe it is another issue, I think it could be a sensor but am not sure thats why I asked here.

To clarify; when it happened (both times) I got a weak wrist on the ignition and did not give it a good turn, kinda like slipped out of my fingers at half start. Was thinking by not Completing the start maybe I am throwing a sensor out of kilter ? If that helps... ~
