a no start problem

Hi all, last week I had a no start, so to get it to go I lifted up on the fuel stop plunger and she will start, so I replace the fuel stop solinoid, and the relay, and she still once in awhile I have to lift the hood and pull up the plunger to start.
Any ideas what to check?
thanks in advance.

I would check the fusible link wires on the battery, they power the solenoid and corrosion on terminals causes a voltage drop. Give the wire a gentle tug if it is like a rubber band the fusible link wire has burnt out. Good Luck

Thanks for that, I did check, and found they are good and clean.
