put gas in car yesterday, was running fine before, drove several miles, car just stopped running about 3 blocks from home. Cooled off then started up again, drove again a little while later, when I stepped on the gas it just stopped running again, try to start back up but would not turn over. All dash lights, radio everything came on just would not turn over. We were thinking it could be the fuel filter or spark plugs. What do u think???
thanks

not likely plugs would change so drastically so suddenly? you can check fuel flow to determine if filter is plugged. sounds like pump may be more likely as that can happen suddenly. check fuel pressure.
