A few months ago I tried starting my car and it cranked over and over and wouldn't start. After a few tries it started up and drove fine. Few days later I went to the store and the same thing when leaving and coming back. Now it won't turn over at all.
I had the battery checked and they said it's in the final 1/4 of it's life and they said the alternator is bad. I've tried jumping the car and same thing, cranks and cranks, won't turn over. I have no fuel pressure from the valve on top of the intake (schraeder?). I don't hear the fuel pump priming when I turn the key or try to start. I've gotten down and listened at the tank and I don't hear the fuel pump. I have checked power and there is power at the inertia switch and on the plug behind the rear bumper going to the fuel pump. I'm not super savvy at electrical testing.
I don't mind spending the money but should I replace the fuel pump, alternator, and battery all at once? I don't want to throw parts at a problem but I'm getting pretty frustrated. I haven't gotten to drive my Cobra in 4 months.
Any suggestions on testing or what to replace?
