    Is yours ultra gauge and does it read fuel pressure?

    Ahh, now I recall, looked at ultragauge, made in China, stopped looking.

    Those who have it, and are happy with it, feel free to ignore my opinion. I do my best to avoid those products. Copyright infringement, lead paint, I can do without.

    Food, I take it a step further to avoid. Alton Brown mentioned tilapia from China is often raised in septic ponds.

    Talapia here is raised in retention ponds.
    That's water runoff from streets and grounds surrounding the pond.
    There could be dog poop it them and Duck poop for sure.

    Merry Christmas

    Seems we’ve gone off topic, my fault.

    I believe the consensus is op needs to be able to see what fuel pressure is showing during the no start issue.

    Busted CV boots and lots of squeaks.
    You need to get the alternator checked.
    I had some problems with mine starting about a year ago. I tried everything to get it to go. I ended up pulling the alternator and taking it to a shop. It needed to be completely rebuilt. Have not had a problem since. I forget what it was but there are some relays or something in there that can get fried from jumpstarts and dead batteries. Which is what happened to mine. I had to jump off my wife’s car, which in turn fried my alternator. I had to get both of ours rebuilt.

    Check the ALT.

    No relays. Maybe Diodes.

    If you go back to the op, he has an intermittent cranks but no start, occasionally after engine is warmed up. So battery, starter, alternator are all ok because it does crank.

    Intermittent problems are always tricky. You have to catch it while it’s problematic and try to find the issue during that time.

    Finally threw a code.
    2441 and 2443. Anyone know a fix for this or just take it in? I'd rather fix myself if I can. Thanks
