2000 Ex won't start.

Just about a week after having the 100k service done for the second time, the Ex ran a little rough (but not like when I had a little water under a COP), and then died, but started up and ran smoothly, and then roughly again, but let me limp home. It is not throwing a code, but now it will only turn over but not fire. I'm thinking fuel pump. Any other brilliant ideas?

In case my vehicles no longer show up in my signature (it's been awhile since I posted), it's a 2000 with the V10 and just over 200k.

Very well could be a fuel pump.
Mine went out at 116K.

However it could be just a clogged fuel filter too.
Might start there, reguardless you'll have to change it.

Can you hear the fuel pump run when you cycle the key? You have a couple of other things you can check as well before you replace any parts: Check the fuel pump shut off switch and the fuel pump fuse.

Did I type just the fuel filter? Trying to listen to the wife while typing is harder than I thought. New fuel pump too.

I've heard you should change your fuel pump relay as well. I'm not sure which it is. I've looked in my manual and it didn't list it.
