I had been driving it for a couple of hours without a problem. I returned home and shut it off to get out and open the gate to my property. Its on a hill and the emergency brake doesn't work. So I shut it off. It would not start again. Turns over and over, but it acts like its not getting any fire. I can hear the fuel pump working. Had to tow it home. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Is it possible you were low enough on fuel, that the incline cuased the pump not to pick up the gas? If not check for spark and gas, can also be a bad ignition module, take it to the parts store, they can test it for you!
