99 dodge sometimes wont start
 
Howdy,I have a 99 dodge that twice now it wouldn't start.It has a rebuilt inj pump about 60,000 miles ago,new fuel filter,Edge E-Z box,all fuses and relays are new and good.It acts like it's not getting fuel and after about 20 tries, with cool down in between, it will just start and run fine.Someone said it might be the fuel shut off switch,another guy said the motherboard was faulty and next time it don't start just turn the key on and let it sit and think,reset, for 5 minutes.It is my first Dodge and I need it to be dependable,what should I try next?

is it auto or 5spd if its 5spd could be a faulty clutch pedal switch known alot of them to be bad

Not too sure about that, he says it acts like its not getting fuel, which sounds like it is cranking but not firing.
Do you have a fuel pressure gauge? If so what does it read. Any codes?

:howdy::hi:
Sorry to hear about your troubles. If you don't have a fuel pressure gauge, you need to get one ASAP. If it seems like it's not getting any fuel, there is a good chance that it could be the actual problem. It's usually that, or an issue with the VP44 I'm afraid to say... :s:
