I've got a 1988 560 SEC that I am restoring that sat for 5 years under leaves. It only has 65,000 miles on it. We got it running beautifully, but all of a sudden, it will only start inconsistently. It seems to be a problem with getting power to the fuel pump. We had replaced both the fuel pump and relay last summer. Now, it is anybody's idea when it will or will not start. We thought it was a problem with the power connection at the fuel pump, but we seem to have ruled that out. What do you ladies and gentlemen think? One last thought. I just recently got new keys for the car. Did the 1988 560 SEC have a security thing in connection with the key where if the wrong key(blank) is used, then the operation of the car is affected? Sounds stupid, but with chips and things in keys these days, you never can tell.
