When you try to start your car, can you hear the fuel pump humming?

It should not surprise anyone to learn that our fuel pump connectors are
wearing out. My car did the same thing earlier this year. I thought it
was the inertia switch, but it turned out to be the electrical
connections to the fuel pump. They do not last forever. My advice is to
cut the wires, go to a hardware store, and buy some sort of strong
connector to replace it.

Everyone should probably replace this connection in the next few years.
