Well, I have been running around all morning in my car. No problems. Then, I go to get my hair cut. Go up the hill. Back the car in. Go inside get my hair cut.

Next, I come out. Crank my car. No problems thus far. I head down the driveway. With the clutch in so motor is at a idle.

Then BAM. All of a sudden car just dies. No studder or nothing.

I was like "what the hell" I try to crank the car. She starts up but is studdering all over the place. I try to get it gas but it just kills over.

I try this a few more times. Now car will not even start at all. turns over but no start.

I think my motor finally went guys.

By the way this was right down the road from Lobstahs house.

the BAM is of concern. honestly chris, sucks to happen, but maybe finally reaching a point like that will be a good thing. give you a chance to get it back running how it used to so you can enjoy it again. you've basically been waiting for this to happen for awhile.

 
**** Chris... but it was probably bound to happen. I bet once it's all fixed, you'll love it even more.

Oh sorry for that. No no noise at at all I was just saying that it went from running perfectly normal to just not running at all. Made no noise or nothing just sputtered out.

 
if it turns over with no start, could be something with your fuel system.
This is what I thought. So I was like maybe my fuse or fuel pump blew. So I checked the IGn fuse and the fuel pump is priming. Plus, I pulled off one of the Fuel feed lines and turned the car to on so pump would prime. Fuel come out and filled up a bottle I put on it. So its not the pump.

 
So anyone have anythoughts? Just doesn't make sense how the car just went from running to not running at all and now want crank.

What fuse would keep the car from starting? I have the IGN fuse checked and she is good. anything else?

Yes I know what you mean Ryan. I am pretty much at the point I am glad it just finally decided to go.

 
when you go to crank, does the starter engage or not. if it does and motor won't crank mebbe it's seized, as in 'done blowed up good." don't axe How I Know.

this is why it's NFG to keep running a sick motor. If u know it's due for major work, the longer you run it before you DO the needed work, the worse stuff happens in the meantime.

 
Ok I just called Napa and they had a crank position sensor I replace it. Nothing.

Also, I used my AP and hooked it up to the car to see if I was throwing any codes. Nothing

Plus, I tried to start the car again. She started up for about 1 sec then died.

 
I agree with you Nigel but you try talking to my wife. She sees me spening that kind of money and steam comes out of her ears.

 
Fixed, the .... was casuing the error, a support ticket has been issued. Sorry for the complications.

 
start with fixing the wife so you can spend the money to fix the car. I'd just take it to m+a and get everything done you think it needs and everything they find
