Sounds like a relay to the fuel pump. If you don't hear the pump power up when you turn the key on it probably is the fuel pump. It's one of the relays mounted on the firewall above the oedals. Try engaging the starter while tapping on the really boxes.be patient and try several times. Sometimes you will find one of the relays has been unmounted in the past. This is usually the one that has been the problem.
