Thanks Rev and Shep. it sounds more and more that it is the fuel pump.
Unfortunately, to take it to a shop will cost more than what I paid for
the
car and something I cannot afford. Is it a big job to replace?
I have a bad back, so if it wasnt too much, I could do it
over several days or more, as I pay in bad pain, every time I tinker with
it.
The wreckers might be my next option if it continues the way it is going.
