Only thing that comes to mind is the fusable links if the fuel pump wont start...

There is a yellow wire there that goes to the ignition switch, when you turn the car to on is closes the coil on the fuel pump relay and you should hear it...

So if its not going, and its not the ignition switch... Then it really sounds like a fusable link... but if it started and then stopped, that's bizarre too... The fuel pump didn't seize, or die, or something stupid did it?

Sending PM

Cheers,
Tim

Have ignition on and try and push start it. If it goes at least you know your fuel pump pumps!. Check fuses in cabin too!. Use a multimeter to check for voltage in circuits. Last but not least your coil might of died, + dizzy. Check for spark Good luck with it !

If the TFI modal is stuffed, you won't get any injector pluse, it won't start relays and fuel pump won't start ...
