Correct, no more stalling since I banged on the fuel pump. Forgot same thing happened February of 2022 and there was the same sound. Have video from then too.

> Car was running fine then went to start it after sitting for 10 hours and would not start. It is cold in Chicago area. Battery is 12.6 V and all lights and radio come on. Oil level and coolant is fine. There was/is an issue that happened once every few months when starting the car that there is no crank no start, I put foot on brake and nudge the shifter and it starts right up. Then I also have noticed sometimes that there is a gasoline smell after starting the car. Car eats up gas but it is a V…

Since this happened weather has been above freezing, up to 60 degrees during the day.
