last night while driving my car just shut off, luckily i was able to coast to a safe parking spot. i need your guys help figuring out the problem. the fuel pump and main relay are both fine, theres no blown fuses, the spark plugs look good and the dizzy cap looks good. the stereo and all the lights work so it shouldnt be a battery issue.

heres the unusual part. sometimes when i try to start it then take the key out it makes a sound like the motor stalled only the motor was never on. also when i try to start it the sound of the engine trying to turn over is not constant. i dont think i can explain the sound well enough but ill try. if i keep trying to start it, once every 2 seconds or so the sound of the engine trying to turn over becomes a little deeper like the engine is hesitating.

please someone help me out if they can. also if my descriptions are unclear of what is happening please let me know and ill try to explain it as best as i can.

 

did u look at the timebelt..

 

this may or may not be it but i had a similar shut off problem w/ my 93 sol, i checked the entire ignition system, fuel system, and it ended up being just vapor lock, it would die on me out of nowhere, and start like 20 minutes later, loosen your gascap a little and see if it starts

 

check if you get any spark to the plugs i think its ure dizzy gone bad

 

spark, fuel, and timing.. start off with the basics.
