Fuel pump or injectors? Starting problems.

Recently I am having problems starting my car only after driving 20+ miles and turning the car off. If I leave the car off for 30 minutes or more, it starts right up. Otherwise, it turns and turns but never fires.

It runs fine while driving and I have never had it cut off, which tells me it is not the fuel pump.

Any body else have this problem with your Max?

I had that problem twice before although not in my max. Regardless both times it was the fuel pump, the car would drive and while im driving poof, it would just cut off so I would check that out if everything else is ok

Started up fine all day today. At least I have a little knowledge just helping my brother in law change his fuel pump out.

Thanks for the replies.

its a peice of cake. Just besure to make sure the lines are tight or they could slide off causing no fuel pressure.(the rubber line to the pump)
