(also $100 an hour) have replaced ignition module and fuel pump relay. problem continues. something which helps restart sooner pull out and cool down the fuel pump relay, then plug back in. now even this action does not work 100% of the time. this vehicle is now parked because i am afraid to drive it. dt |
