4ksq no start :(

[Dry Ridge Design]

Was the car "slow" starting before this?  ie. cranking for 5-10 seconds on a
cold morning etc.  I assume you are listening for the fuel pump?  Thought
I'd ask the most obvious/stupid question I could.  When you turn key to on
the fuel pump should make it normal noises.  If not, then I'd replace that.
