If The Pin Wasnt Still There Would it run? Because it does this is an intermittant problem. When it dies its just all of a sudden then it wont start for a few hours then it will.
There are 2 sensors by the firewall mounted on a bracket on top of the engine. One of them is the fuel injectors speed sensor. It will have to be replaced. Can't remember if it the white or black one.
