A/C = nope its off. Not hot or damp enough to turn it on.

Alternator = no symptoms are totally against that.

Water pump = Again no, no coolant leaks and its new less than 3,000 miles ago.

Primer pump = ? hasn't been disturbed since I bought the car so who knows.

Lift pump = ????????? I would think it would be more constant. But its not beyond the scope of possibility.

May I add, temp remains normal, so is oil pressure during these eppisodes.
