went to leave work today and my car didnt start, i think it might not be getting fuel or spark. the fuses look fine. 2nd time this happened to me lately, other times it will fire up fine, and sometimes its a little of a hard start. and input will help. thanks
 


went to get it towed earlier and the tow truck driver listened to it then told me to try to start it again as he started hitting the bottom of my car with a metal bar. started right up. he said the fuel pump was going
 
it could be the fuel pump relay as well.......they are kind of famous for going out on our cars.......did you try the bent tab for the relay? Or are you familiar with this...
 


mine pooped on me at school lucky i was in autos so we ordered the fuel pump it was like 240 then took the carpeting out in the trunk and theres a panel u uncrew it and yank the old 1 out put the new 1 in and your good to roll GP STYLE again haha
 
sounds like a starter. do you have full power, turn the key to start and nothing happens? my car does it too. i hit the starter with a wrench and it works right away.

What our buddy ^^^^^ probably means is .. did the tow truck driver whack your car in the front or back. Front = starter, back = fuel pump.

At first I read the whacked the car and it started as...beat the starter as well. However..if the driver told you fuel pump, then he better have been whacking the fuel tank.
