Left my mom's house had a hard time starting. Drove about fifteen miles on the highway started losing power not running right. Made it to town seemed to be okay then I got home it quit running. Waited fifteen minutes started back up then shut right off. Did that twice and now it will not start. No lights are on the dashboard. No CEL or security light of any kind. I am replacing the fuel pump Saturday. Is that what it sounds like or should I change the fuel pump relay? Thanks
