I hope this helps

hey thanks for the advice

i pulled the fuses in the trunk and the fuel pump one looked fine.

my car almost has 80K (78.5K) so it may be the CPS. I am going to install headers, new pulley kit, plugs, and wires this weekend, so i think i am going to order a CPS just in case for some preventative maintenance.
