Re: intermittent no start
Seems you have the classic "guess and swap" method of auto repair going on. It just seems odd that so many parts would all be failing simultaneously. Seeing as the car is 24 years old, I would look closely at wiring connections and for chaffed wiring. The ignition switch itself could be suspect ...

Re: intermittent no start
Thank you Erikv11, I did a little more research and ended up getting the pump from Rock auto for $60 on a close out.
The only thing I had to modify was the wires in the pump holder. The new pump came with wire terminals and a plug to match the pump.
Did the job inside of an hour and it worked fine ...

Re: '96 850 no start
I remember reading on this site that the coolant temperature sensor can cause a no start.
Be sure you have spark, or all your work is for nothing.
Cranking a couple cranks with the pump relay pulled out will do the trick.

Re: Fuel Pump Check
Getting the lines off from what i can yell they are the kind with metal spikes that set when pushed on. Push down and squeeze the release then pull up to get it off. As said before a wrench can help. The fun part is unscrewing the plastic nut without breaking it.

Re: Fuel Pump Check
Replace the fuel filter and see if that fixes it. This is the first thing I expect to be the issue when a car starts runs then dies, especially the way you mentioned.
Never mind, just reread your post. Are there any codes especially for crank sensor?
And have you checked fuel pressure when it's ...

Re: intermittent no start
The pump you mentioned is stock for the 93 model? Or is there a plug modification I will have to do?

Re: intermittent no start
Your best bet on the fuel pump is Bosch 69693, that is the OEM part but far cheaper than buying it branded that way.
I would also swap the fuel pump relay, it is a common source of intermittent no-starts. A junkyard relay is a good place to start, for troubleshooting purposes. My first thought was ...

Re: intermittent no start
So for the update,
I went ahead and replaced both sensors, no start still.
The fuel pump is not running now so gotta replace that too.
Last time I was looking at it the pump was running, checked for voltage with DVOM and it was 11.5ish and pump did nothing...
GRRR, I wish she had never bought this ...

Definitely need to find coolant leak, sucks working in such cold weather.
Common culprits mentioned above, plus depending on where it is leaking, the heater core lines can cause such a thing.
I definitely recommend replacing the Thermostat during winter ...
