What year is your car? Before it shut off, did you get a "Check Engine" light on the dash? When you turn on the ignition, do you get a flashing POWER light? Mileage?
We need some of these answers to start to make a diagnosis. (But I doubt it is the fuel filter) The parts between the years is usually the same, but the diagnosis procedure on the later cars is a little different. There seems to have been a recent increase of our cars stalling while driving, or not starting at all. These include crank sensors, cam sensors or faulty MAF sensors. tell us everything you can. Welcome to the Network!!

Well if the gas light came on, let's start with the obvious, is there gas in it?

Damn wise-ass heli-pilots! My kids grandpa was an instructor...
Sorry to derail this poor dude's thread, but just on a side note, don't skimp on the gas...PREMIUM only! I wimped out last month when gas was higher, and got 02 sensor warnings for the first time. Went away after that tankful. Coincidence? I think not. Carry on..... |
