    Are you certain the fuel pump is working?

    And there is no spark?

    Interesting, it is unusual for all of that to just stop working. It almost sounds as though the battery is dying or has a bad cell.

    Yes, but even if the battery is at a below normal voltage, the pump should still try to prime the system....

    Im kinda thinking a bad/loose connection. When hot, it could have been making just enough contact to work, but then when shut down, and cooled, that was it. :confused:

    Very possible. Or maybe even corroded battery terminal.

    Yeah, but the battery terminal would affect the turnin over first, as more amps are required......

    That's what is confusing. Nothing points to a single cause.

    I still think the fuses need to be double checked.

    OP....Did you pull out all the fuses and look at them in the light? Sometimes they can be a little hard to see if broken.

    There isn't anything that effects them both that I can find besides the IGN switch itself.

    Wait, I see the IGN fuse fires the EFI relay. And if the EFI relay doesn't fire the pump doesnt run. Look there.
