So... I went to start the Raider this evening to come home from work. Started up, ran for about 3 seconds, then died. Cranks fine, but does not fire up. I went and put my ear down over where I thought I remembered the fuel pump being, and heard nothing while having my wife crank the engine. No meter to try and pull codes from the ECU -- I'll try that tomorrow.

Does the fact that I cannot hear the pump indicate it is not running? I recently had to have the alternator replaced, and I'm wondering if something has gone amiss with this. I also note that when I switch the ignition off, I hear a "click" maybe 1/2 to 1 second after shutting it off that I've always figured was the relay that controls the fuel pump clicking off. Anyone think it is the fuel pump, or are more folks betting on the ECU?

Also, is the fuel pump in the 3.0L replaceable without having to drop the fuel tank?

Oooorrr... could this be a snapped timing belt? I hope not <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" />

Thanks!
