Hello, Did you have it towed home? And is it dead or does the engine starter crank the engine over normally, or does itv sound strange, like its cranking a little too fast? Or is it in a shop?

Sounds like what my 94 did to me. In that case it was the fuel pump. sometimes by pounding on the gas tank you can get it to start but it is only a band aid to get it home or to the shop. When you turn the key to on listen for the hum of the fuel pump or check using a fuel pressure tester.
