Driving the car today and died

That is an interesting result since the oil pump pressure switch would keep the car running if the fuel pump relay died.

I thought I read that he changed the fuel pump relay and there was no change.............

Now that turns out to be the fix?

Hmmmmmmmm...........

The first fuel pump relay had water inside because it was just laying in top of the inner fender and took the car to get a car wash and they wash the engine bay .After car wash I drove it to run some errands and in my way home I guess it just failed. Went that happened I took the relay out and tap it and water was coming out so called my wife to bring me a relay from our local auto part store so she did the one she got for me was defective because it didn't change anything long story short got the car home . Look for the fuel pump test wire no luck I get somebody cut it off so went to the rear of the car to fuel pump plug and used a wire from the battery to the Grey wire in the plug and the fuel pump came on . Went to Napa and pick up a new relay and the car started right up .

Thanks for following through with the end of the story. Lots of times the solution is found, but the person posting never bothers to let us know what the problem was...

I still believe you have an intermittent problem that's going to rear it's head again.

Just for kicks, what brand was the relay that was full of water from the car wash?
