Ok so my eclipse is beaing a PITA, car was running fine two days ago but now it wont run, the car will turn ove like normal, rev up a little like it does when the engine is cold, it revs up to about 1100 then just dies, the car is suposed to get up to 1500 for warming up so it dosent even make it there. i dont think (but im not sure) its the fuel pump beacuse after it dies the guage reads a decent fuel pressure but for the short time its running i dont get a reading due to the guage calibrating itself and the car dieing so fast. also aplying the gas has no effect the car still dies. any ideas i really need some help.

Sorry if this is a repost, for some reason i cant searh the forums laitly. i have searched b 4 and saw a lot of fuel pump issues causing this but again i dont think thats my issue..
 
when you restart it do you turn the ignition off and then it restart or when it dies you just crank the motor over with out turning the ignition off then on.
 
ive done it both ways with the same results.

Update so i went out to autozone and got some starting fluid and before i used it i tried starting the car, now it wont even turn over, im so ready to beat this car into the ground. anyways i tried using the starting fluid and it did nothing, absoutly nothing car still acted the same way no extra kick at the start or anything.
