Car won't start. . Drove it last week parked the car and didn't mess with it because it broke the stock cc plate. . I was getting ready to replace it with mm cc plates. . I went to start the car and it only cranks.. i smell fuel so i just stopped.. thinking possibly the fuel pressure sensor i think that's what is called.. not sure how to check tho.. any input would be great. Thanks guys..

Pull the vac line coming off the FRPS and check to see if its filled with fuel or smells like fuel. Also check your oil to see if it smells like fuel. If it does change it out.
Great advice but I'll add that when my FRPS failed on my last Cobra I had no fuel smell in the oil or the vac lines. I changed it and the car was fixed. I just thought it might be worth mentioning.
I should have mentioned, they can fail mechanically by bursting the diaphram or electically. Thanks for catching that RichM1983. I think you can unplug the electrical plug and see if she starts. Any codes?

No prob glad it was that, easy fix. Pick up a spare one later from the market section and keep it in the glove box.
I was told GT ones work the same and usually come at less cost.
I'd check into it.
