Howdy all.
I have noticed a new problem that seems to be getting worse with each passing day.
Sometimes when I go to start my 2001 Trac, it will just crank and never fire - as if it is out of gas.
I usually stop trying right away, and turn off everything to make it quiet... Then I turn the key to the ON position to see if I can hear the fuel pump priming. Usually, when it is not starting, I will hear nothing. I try to turn the key off, then on (slowly) over and over again until I finally hear the fuel pump prime, then when I twist the key to start it will fire up right away.
Is this a fuel pump going bad? A relay going bad? Something to do with the kill switch?
I am guessing the pump is just going bad. Any thoughts?
