Message 93 TT 63,000 miles
Flex fuel: I run E85 all summer then in the winter 93 w/ stabil.
Stored Oct.-May

Car has been difficult to start @ times.
I will turn it over and it tries and just stops.
It can take anywhere from 2-3 attempts. But this AM it took about 6.
It tries real hard then just stops.
This AM after about the 4th attempt the engine was trying real hard then stopped.
Next attempted it fired up. It struggled but it did. You could almost feel the engine trying and it didnt sound to good.
If I start it again later that day it usually ( usually is the keyword ) starts up no issues.
The car can sit anywhere from 10-14 days without being driven.
Tank is never less then 1/2 full.

Recently- in last 1,500 miles ( 2020 ) when we did the FF conversion we did:
AUS 750
Z32 Fuel rail insulators
Nistune FF package, FF sensor, wideband sensor & FF pressure sensor for Nistune.
Dyno tune dual MAP
NGK's 2667 BKR7EIX
Delete: EGR, TB coolant lines
Also just replaced battery. Connected to a tender @ all times.

I'll try and get a video next time.

Fuel related issue? Fuel pump ? Relay ? Faulty injector ?

When I turn the key on I don't hear any buzzing coming from the fuel pump.

TIA
