Cruising the interstate, and she just gave it up.
After diagnosis, turned out to be some corrosion at the terminals which plug onto the top of the fuel pump.
If you've got spark, I'd bet your computer is not the culprit. Get the cover off the pump and make sure you are getting 12V there when you are cranking. When the car is cranking you can hear the fuel pump run if you listen closely. You need to confirm fuel pressure is in the rail before you dive into the injection control (IMHO).
Good luck, and remember that simple root causes are more prevalent that sun-spots and intermittent faults! Always confirm you have spark & fuel!
