Default What could this be?

I was cruising down the highway and my car started to bog like it was running out of gas cause there was no reponse from the pedal and my car shut off, it turns over now but doesnt startup. Im guessing this is my fuel pump?? How much can I expect to pay if this is the case?

Check the ignitor, it's the thing with 4 wires on it inside the distributor, also check the contact for the coil is good.

So let me guess is your hatch a DX? You have the same problem that I had/have. I didnt bother fixing it though since I am yanking my motor and putting in a different one I had spark and fuel so the only thing that I could think of is that my timing belt tensioner went and that my timing belt skipped a few teeth?? I know the timing belt is good I checked that but I could slide it back and forth pretty easily. If you figure out what it is let me know cause it would be interesting to know what the problem was. Oh and sorry I couldnt help you out much but I would definately check for the obvious spark and fuel and if you have them check and make sure that your timing is still on......
