Fuel problems? I went to start my car this morning and it would turn over but would only run for a second or two and then it would die. I tried it a few times and it kept doing the same. I just said screw it and drove the g/f's car to work. My first thought was that the fuel pump or the relay went out. But I tried it after work and it started up and ran fine. Any clue what it could be. Just a bad morning or is this a sign of something starting to go bad? Car only has 28k miles.

Bad gas or water in the line. Could be one of many different things. If it hasnt had a tune up lately give it one. Check the fuel PSI with a gauge to make sure its OK.

I was planning on trying to get a hold of a fuel pressure gauge to check that out. I'm hoping that it was just bad gas, because its been running ok so far.
