Intermittent Starting Fault On Nova Xe

[Mboasty]

hi, my nova's been playing up last couple of days, it all started yesterday when i went to start it it wouldent fire up, then gave it five min's tryed again & it started, so thought i must of flooded it or somthing, then it did it again later on, after starting up twice without no problems. then tryed it again tonight fired up no problems left it a bit then it wouldent start again?! i have changed plugs, & have tryed anothe ecu on it but nether of them made a diffrence. it has had a new cranksensor aswell.

anyone got any ideas?

Fuel pump relay accounts for most random non-starts ime.

My van is doing this at the moment.... randomly cuts out when you're driving too and then refuses to start - its a royal PITA! :confused:
