Hi All,

I have another issue. As always, I could use your help and guidance. Thank you.

The car starts and runs fine for 10 minutes and dies. No start after that, I have to wait then it starts fine. It sounds like a bad fuel pump relay. Right? I put a backup relay and still the same symptom. I don't remember if my backup relay is good or not. I am going to place an order. Are there any other things that I need to look into?

Q1. Can a bad or failing MAF/AMM cause the problem?
Q2. There is a slight air leak at the intake hose/expansion bellow, can that cause the engine to die?
Q3. Can dying main fuel pump cause it?


A quick overview

the fuel filter has over 30,000 miles three years old
