Good afternoon everyone,
My 1997 J30t (about 171,000 miles) cranks but will not start. There were no prior symptoms that I noticed, and the car was in a garage (and did not get wet). I filled the tank with Shell gasoline about 5 miles previously to putting the car into the garage for a couple of days. I found some possible causes on-line: "No fuel because of a dead fuel pump, bad fuel pump relay, blown fuel pump fuse, plugged fuel filter or line, or failed PCM injector driver circuit or injector power supply relay. Or, the fuel tank might be empty (don’t believe what the gauge is telling you), or the fuel tank might contain contaminated fuel (water or too much alcohol) or the wrong type of fuel (whoops, somebody put in diesel instead of gasoline)." I am thinking a bad fuel pump or fuel pump fuse might be the culprit. The fuel pump was changed at 60,000 miles, which would have been roughly ten years ago. Any ideas of things to look for?
