Default Something is wrong with my car...please help!!!

If you dont know I have a 93 Hatch GSR turbo, the car had beed running perfectly the day before. Then I went to start my car yesterday and it started but was running really sputtery, then it died and. It was a little low on gas so I figured maybe it was out of gas. So today I fill up a thing of gas and add it to my car. Tried to start the car and got the same thing sputterd like twice then died. Now it will hardly even start, I am gonna check spark in a few hours when my friend gets home. But does anyone have any ideas what I should check??

Check spark and fuel. See if your plugs are fouled or not and then check if you got the right amt of fuel going in.

swap plugs, check fuel regulator and vac lines, check fuel pump fuse. if it still doesnt run right do a compression test.

there is also one under the dash on the integras, its not labeled but ive seen them blow after fuel pump problems so its somehow related. i think its different for every car.
