Hi all,

A few months back I posted a couple of questions while trying to solve a no-start. It's since been solved, so I thought I'd post the solution, since I haven't seen it mentioned and it's a trivial thing to try. The car didn't seem to be getting fuel, though occasionally it would sputter for a few seconds before going back to sleep. Turns out there was a problem with the electrical connectors on the main fuel pump. They looked perfectly OK, but cleaning them solved the problem instantly.

Cheers,

-Lujo
