    2001 toyota tacoma will not start after new fuel pump installed
    I installed a new fuel pump on my 2001 toyota tacoma and every now and then (like once a month) it will not start. If I give it overnight to set and come back it will start. This is weird and has not been a problem until the new fuel pump. What is this?

    . Remove and clean the contacts to the fuel pump relay with abrasive cloth. Apply a thin coating of dielectric grease.

    . Clean ground to fuel pump and check connections.

    . Check the ignition switch for wear, pitting, or melting, if the problem persists.

2001 Toyota Tacoma [ 1 Answers ]

On occasion, about once a day, when I go to start the truck, nothing will happen. Shut the key off and try again and it will start fine. The battery is only 4 months old and is always strong. Does this sound like a ground or corroded terminal on starter? Any other suggestions
