While thinking about fuel delivery problems I did the IAADAAS test: I cranked the engine a number of times until it fired, ran around dove under the car and grabbed the fuel pump, which was humming. The engine, as was expected, shut off just like someone turned the key off, AFAICT, at exactly the same time as the fuel pump going quiet. Any chance my fuel pump is the problem? Something turning my fuel pump off for no good reason? TIA. -- sbb \:)> /:(>
