He vehicle started and shut down by itself. Ignition coil sparks are coming to the spark plugs, sparks are coming while the engine is on, sparks are coming in the injectors too. I've checked all the fuses, turned out it was fine. But the main problem is my engine cranks but it wont start.

Good afternoon,

You need to check the fuel pump pressure. It sounds like the pump may have failed. You need 9 to 12 lbs. for it to run.
