OK 3 weeks ago the wife's '03 Disco didn't start. Turned over and sounded like it wanted to but it would not fire. Had it towed to the shop (and this is small town WY). Plugs were dirty they changed em and it ran fine...until today. Same stoy. Do I need to change the plug wires?

crank sensor? fuel pump?

Any other symptoms? No spark, etc? Does it happen more after it's been driven, but is ok after sitting?

 

About 21 months ago (probably my last post) a sensor down by the tire went haywire and the car would die as you were driving down the road. Let it sit again and it would fire right up. This is different. Wife hardly goes anywhere and the car does sit most of the time.

Fuel Pump and crank sensor are two other possibilities huh? Great. Would changing the plugs effect how they operate? Only ask because after we did that the Disco ran fine for 3 weeks until today. I had this happen on a Saturn which is why I am asking...changed the plugs and everything was fine for awhile until I changed the plug wires and everything was fine. Any chance that is the case in this situation?
