[DMCForum] very frustrated!! - starting problem

["Brian" <TK581@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Well, over the past few weeks I revamped my fuel tank system with a 
new pump and lines!  It worked ut great and the car performs great 
(except for a few shutters here and there which I suspect may be a 
vacuum leak somewhere)

ANYWAY... I started the car in the driveway the other evening and it 
sprang to life on the first try.  It sat there idling for a minute 
or so then died!  I attempted to start it again with no luck.  It is 
as if the engine was not getting any fuel.  I kept trying then got a 
bit frustrated and let it be for the night.  The next day I tried 
again and still no luck.  I hear a series of clicking sounds from 
the electricalcompartment (not the usual 'one' but a click, click, 
click)  could this an electrical issue?  

I also listened to the fuel pump when I turned the ignition key.  It 
sounds like it gets juice but it doesn't 'whine' like it should.  
Again, the pump is brand new and it ran great for a few days before 
this.  I'm kind of at a loss because I know for sure what went into 
the fuel fix and I can't see any rreason why this is happening.

I miss my car running :(

thanks in advance if anybody has a suggestion.
