Cut out now won't start
So I was driving my 1996 Wrx a couple of days ago had been givimg it some right foot, but as i was about 3 miles from home starting winding it down to help cooldown. About 1/4 mile from home I turned a 90degree corner and the car just lost power
I tried turning it off and on again incase immobiliser but still nothing. I got the car home and started to investigate. Removed belt covers everything lines up changed cam and crank sensor still nothing, tried different ecu not worked checked all fuses car cranks but won't turn. Normally runs pretty rich as pushing 400bhp no smell of petrol when cranking had walbro pump recentley wondering if loose connection any1 encountered this b4 where else would you look. Cheers Tim

Most likely to be something to do with fuel pump take pump out and wire it to a 12v supply and see if fuel pump is working thats the first step. Could be a fuel pump relay in fault
