When I arrived, I turned the ignition switch to "on" to see if I could hear the pump priming. I THINK I heard a click, but I did not hear a whirrr or humming sound. But she cranked right up when I turned the switch. idled great, drove her home ~25 miles. Then got to a red light and after a minute or two she suddenly and abruptly (no sputter) conked out. Started right up again on the first try. Drove the remaining 2-3 miles home with no issue. Parked. Tried again after about 20 minutes and she wouldn't start. Fuel tank is starting to get low, but not low enough to think I'm out of gas. Could the fuel pump be getting clogged?

I couldn't locate the fuel check terminal, and it was raining by the time I got ready to dig in on the solenoid test. So nothing to report in those departments. I might try in the morning if the rain is gone.

The intermittent behavior makes me think electric. Ideas?
