lol, it's funny how things like that happen.
I remember when I was 10 or 12 years old and the lawnmower wouldn't start, my dad sent me to the barn to get a qt of oil to change it.
I came back about an hour later (as most 10-12YO's would do), chenged the oil, and the first pull it started up.
I always attributed it to changing the oil...
A few years later he told me he cleaned the plug.

the fuel pump and the ecm run off on of the connectors running through the altenator therefore if the altenator goes bad just on like the diode or something near that connecter it wont get power and then leading to the fuel pump and ecm not coming on
