Loose banjo fitting sucking in air. After spending numerous hours on my fuel system and consulting many people to solve the problem, my mechanic advised me the cause was a loose banjo fitting letting in air which starved my engine of fuel causing it to not start.
Apparently, idling at minimum RPM causes the engine to vibrate too much and the banjo fitting can become loose. My mechanic recommends not idling at minimum RPMs, but getting the engine spinning to a point where it is not vibrating too much. Also, my mechanic recommends inspecting and tightening the banjo fitting at every oil change.
