If I had to guess between the DIC and the fuel pump, I would guess the fuel pump. If the electronics in the DIC die, it's not going to heal itself. The fuel pump, on the other hand, may fail to start if the comutator is in a certain position. Maybe the tow home jiggled it a bit so that the comutator moved slightly off the bad spot and it started. It wouldn't hurt to carry a spare DIC and a rubber hammer with you. The next time it won't start, hit the platstic tank with the hammer while someone is cranking the engine. If that doesn't help, change the DIC with the spare.... Ron
