If you have a MTX there are only two relays on the firewall, but I suspect that that's not your problem. I'd guess faulty crank or cam posistion sensor, probably crank though.

relay is located on the top right corner of the engine bay. You'll see several relays, the fuel pump relay is the one on the far left.

so wat is this mtx ur talking about im confused about this i mean i know i have a esi but wat in the world is a mtx and yes i am leaking oil at the cam pos. sensor so u would say replace that ad yes i do have only two of them fuse relays on the fire wall as u said

MTX = Manual transmission

Also I would say check those sensors, Before I got my CAI bypass filter I would shorten the CAI to a SRI anyhow when I had it shortened the filter would push on the plug on the Cam sensor and acutally make it lose contact a bit and my car would just die out. I would have to get under the hood and push the plug back in. Shortened CAI's dont work well.

No other problems though? CEL's?

so i followed every ones advice and changed out the crank sensor with and after market brand from the parts store mind u that didnt come with instructions for which wires need to be wired to which beware due to them not being the same color wat so ever but yeah car didnt want to start after that so i put the old one back on and then still didnt start but then after some loosening of the damn fuse box under the hood it started ive noticed that the battery light dont come on when i was starting it but then when i loosened it, it came on weird a$$ sh!t there man i dont get it but yeah then yesterday while im about to go to my great pizza delivery job my damn car doe it again while im at the damn stop sign ahhh f@cking pile of sh!t so after 3 minutes of tapping the starter and the still nothing i run up tap the fuse box and the ecu and wallah presto its like shim shim Ala kabibe twitched his nose and the damn battery light came on and it started right up no problem for the rest of the day so im thinking it maybe my battery connection at the fuse box cause i have a brand new battery in this mass of toilet poo!!!!!! any other ideas guys????? i mean if there was a loose connection there, would that make it not come on when it cranks meaning it wasnt sending a signal to the ecu
