hey guys I have a 96 disco with 130K, I was driving the other day and stopped to make a turn and the truck died, not able to restart. I got it off the road and it sat for a day and started no problem. A little backround with the starting is for a couple of weeks you can pt the key in and turn but nothing happens, if you continue to hold the key it will start to turn over fine but not start. You can then take the key out, wait a second, put it back in and starts just fine, no hesitation. The night it died no matter how many times I took the key out and waited it still would hesitate and not start. I did hear while driving home a clicking noise from the passenger footwell ( relay?) and the truck died. I waited a minute and it started no problem and I drove home without incident. I checked the fuel at the rail by pressing on the valve and it squirted out with pretty good pressure. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!!

I would pull the steering wheel plastic (only a couple screws) and check the plugs for corrosion or burnt wires.
