Default Crank, crank, crank - fixed!

Hi all and special thanks to those who helped me fix my cranking problem. Based on information picked up from this digest, I found and purchased a fuel pressure regulator from a site on Ebay. Instead of replacing the whole fule pump ($268), I just bought the fuel pressure regulator for around $50. It took me all of about 1/2 hour to relace the old one and now it starts instantly! Thanks again - you have agreat digest here.

Yes, I'm happy to write that it came from the "fuelpumpking1" and it was item # 8071041659. Or just look under fuel or pressure regulator. The part was roughly $50, it cam within a few days and installation tokk like a half hour. I wish evrything was that easy...............and that inexpensive to fix! Glad I found this list or I'd have spent close to $300!

^^^Better to replace both struts instead of just one. What you do suspension wise to one side you should do to the other.
