i'm guessing it's the fuel pump. not getting the typical whirring noise at start up. engine turns over but does not start. tapped on the tank once and it started; drove about 130 miles, started fine quite a few times. died on me and wouldn't start again.

can i remove and install the fuel pump through the opening in the trunk-that's the idea so you won't have to drop the tank. Check the wiring to the pump-if okay replace the pump
