03 MCS stumbles on start
Could use a little help with my 03 MCS . Had an issue a few days ago. When starting ran really rough , like only 1 or 2 cycl were firing . After sitting it started great with no issues.
Yesterday it happened again only this time stumbled and stalled a few times a
nd then nothing ... crank but no start. When I turn the key to position 2 I hear the fuel pump but only the first time. There's no more fuel pump sound after that initial time
Seems to be a fuel issue so the question is where to start . Does this sound like the pump is dying or maybe fuel filter or pressure regulator? Any help greatly appreciated

You will need the pre 7/2004 fuel pump of the R53, Just make sure you get the correct one. https://www.ecstuning.com/Search/Sit...h/16146766177/ The filter is a bit of a pain, but can be done: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...er-change.html

Some have a green top and some newer years have the white top.
