car has quart tank of gas. it was not moved for 24 hours. went to crank it. it turns over fine but would not ignite the gas. I dont hear the pump ingaging as usual. Is it the relay or the pump?

Check that the inertia switch in the driver foot well didn't turn off by accident
or check fuel pump relay in the engine bay.
After that the pump could be toast.

If the fuel pump relay and inertia switch check out OK then check the ignition relay under the dash. A few of the Contours I've had have had the same symptom and the fix was the igintion relay. One good(and easy) way to tell is to see if your power windows and the blower motor work with the key in the run position. If they don't work then it is most likely your ignition realy OR a burnt out ignition switch.
