I drove over a snow bank & drove approximately 1/8 of a mile when the engine quit.As I said above the engine will turn over but not start.When I try to start it another person near the gas tank cannot here the fuel pump clicking. A friend suggested a wiring harness may have been disconnected going over the snowbank but I cannot see any pulled apart,but, I am not sure exactly where to look. thank-you so much. deb
