Recently my car would not start, sounded like it was not getting fuel. Towed it to a repair shop and they diagnosed it as the fuel pump, which they replaced. Ran fine for a week and then I had the same problem again. Would not start and I could not hear the fuel pump at ignition. Then all of a sudden after quite a few tries, it started ! I'm thinking for some reason the fuel pump isn't receiving a signal at ignition. What do you think could be causing this? TYVM
