What it does it won't start the first time then I take the key out then the second time it turns on but it turns over but it takes at least two times to start it i haven't seen anyone say there their fuel pump going bad but you never know I just replaced my cam sensor there is no check engine light before there was before I changed the cam sensor but the code was cleared and hasn't came back . I replaced my crank sensor about a year ago you think it would be the crank is bad now .

There are no BS Billy answers---purchase a fuel line pressure tester---does the actual pressure meet the cars specs, if yes buy your girlfriend a hot dog; if no, cancel the date because the correct fuel pump will cost you some bucks(north of 400)
