Had trouble getting the engine to run yesterday a couple of times. It happens after I run for a while and shut it down. When I restart it acts like it will barely run and eventually quits. It always restarts quickly but no matter where I put the throttle it seems to act like it's starving for fuel, will not rev and then quits. After several attempts it eventually starts to run better and then acts normal. I put a fuel pressure gauge on the rail today and it shows 35/40 lbs continuously. I did not have the gauge with me yesterday when it was acting up so I don't know if it had fuel pressure issues at the time. I'm wondering if there is a pressure sensor issue or some other electronic sensor that is intermittently failing.
