No start mystery 200 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be Jim on  Mon Nov 10 13:41 CST 2003 [RELATED]


For the second time in three days (also happened one other time about 2 months ago) my car would crank but wouldn't start. Plenty of battery, crank her four or five times then I get jiggle a variety of wires and "phoof" she starts right up. Most wires and connections have been checked, cleaned and tightened.

When it happened tonight, I finally got smart and listened for the fuel pumps/relays - nothing...Earlier today I had cleaned and checked the 25 amp fuse under the hood. Everything looked fine. In-tank fuel pump and fuel pump relay have recently been replaced. This time I "jiggled" the fuse and what I believe is the auxliary fuel relay and she fired right up again.

Anybody have any thoughts/suggestions???



TIA,
