Ok im pretty mechanicly enclined. However im stumped.Iv noticed since
it has gotton colder
it takes my explorer a few more cranks to start than normal. A few
days ago i started the suv
im scraping the windows....the explorer stops running, i tried to
start it and i noticed when i turn the key their was no humming noise
from the pump and of corse it cranked over but no cigar...it wouldnt
start.
i checked the relay under the hood looks ok but replaced anyway,still
nothing.Next...i checked INERTIA switch again,that was ok and wasnt
tripped.is their still another fuse like under the dash or something?
someone please help im stumped and i dont want to replace the pump if
thats not it.

thanks Dave w/Dns Painting

i think there might be a fuse in the dash that activates the fuel pump
relay when you turn on the ignition, check that, other than that, i
have no idea.  i dont know why it would just stop after you already
started it.  my '00 has a leak in one of the fuel pump valves,
occasionally it takes a few cranks to start because all the fuel runs
back to the tank when it sits still for a few hours, but your case
sounds a little more serious than this.
