“Attempted to start vehicle after overnight parking. When I activated ignition there was a loud explosion under the hood which blew off most of the insulation lining and ignited a fire around the air intake cover. I was told that the fuel pump relay switch failed. This and the fule pum were replaced but now vehicle will intermitently accelerate when idling and or moving at around 25mph.”
