i am going to try to check the main relay and also will replace the fuel filter . i just have to find some instruction on how to do the fuel filter. can i access the main relay by getting down on the floorboard and removing the grey box?

RE: trouble starting
if you go to OUR DIY section, there is a step by step procedure on HOW TO replace the fuel filter ..
the main relay is located under left side of dash, left of the steering wheel column, above the cruise control box.......looking at it from underneath it si kind of rysty/brownish in color , it has 7 wires going to it .. ,, remove the relay, pry it open with a small screwdriver, chk the solderings for any cracks,, if any,, resolder and put together.. or by a new relay and install it
here is a bit of info on the relay
