[Shotimes] SHO Leaves Me Stranded Today

[Zach Leahy]

Either that or fuel pump.  Similar symptoms, but sounds more like a
crank sensor.  Need to shove a new one in the green car as it is
intermittantly cutting out.

When a fuel pump dies it often will come back to life, but you will
know becasue you will not hear it when you flip the key to on.  Had
mine start acting up at the OK convention, and managed to squeak home
with it.  Generally they do not quit while running though.  They just
fail to work at startup.  Draining the pressure on the rails will
often get it to run temporarily again.  Just make sure Kurt Metros and
Dave Kegel are standing behind you with a fire extinguisher when you
do it over a really hot engine in 105 degree weather :).
