So I havent been here in who knowz how long...

Anyway, my GT - it now has just over 44000miles, having first issue since I've owned the car.

What happened was that I was driving, parked it on somewhat of sloped spot, and car failed to start.
It just cranked and cranked and cranked, but did not start.

puzzled, i called my garage, and they said to check fuel rest. Which wasn't popped up.
After which car started up nothing happened. Must be wiggling that reset switch wire made start.

so nurveus, i hurried home.
next several start up went uneventful.
Then i sort of forgot about it.

So today, after some spining tire few times like i do all the time, she failed to start again.

Wiggling the wire seemed to did the trick.
So I figured it was something to do with that. So after I got home, I removed the switch, disconnect it, and try to start it again to confirm.
To my suprise, with no switch in place, car started up. Rough and stinky like raw gas, but started. Not crank and crank and crank.

So now I'm puzzled. Anyone have pointer?

fuel filter was replaced around 5000miles ago.
no code.

I'm thinking may be low fuel pressure, or no spark

but if i have low fuel pressure, I'd think it'll still stumble a little, not just crank, crank, crank..
 
Thats strange

When is the last time you changed your sparkplugs? Even if your gaps are off that could be part of the problem. If its not the fuel its probably something with the ignition. Does it run alright when you drive it?
