alright so last weekend i brought my car home on barely any gas b/c i didnt have money on me to get gas.....the car sat for 4 days while i was up north and i came back and it ran out of gas because it just turned off so i put 5 gallons in and it took me like 15 min to get it started...then when i got it started i drove it for like 10 min and it turned off on me while i was drivng...the car sometimes would turnover and idle at 500 RPMs and i would step on the gas and my car would turn off. it seems like i am not gettin gas but the pump is working and we disconnected a fuel line and gas squirted out when i tried to start it. it did this like 4 more times and now my car does not start. the things i checked are the fuel pupm works great, i am getting spark, nothing is disconnected anywehere..anybody have any ideas?
 
check your feul filter and clean you fuel injectors. i had a similar problem with my srt4 when i had gotten bad gas turned out i had oil in my gas and it stoped up my injectors. so i would just check you fuel filter and clean the injectors and once you get it running run a goo bit of fuel treatment and injector cleaner through it.
