Car completely died ... help diagnose
Wel lI tried following the FSM but some of it just went over my head. Anyway, I was cruising around and went to the gas station ... as I turn in the car completely died. No stumbling, stuttering, or anything else.
Tried to crank it again, no luck. Theres spark/air going but doesnt seem like any fuel is making its way in.
I popped the hood and noticed the EGI fuse was blown, so I pulled the other 30A fuses and tossed them in to check and it blew those too (now no headlights or retractors lol). Didn't hear the fuel pump kickon.
I then jumped the Ground and Fuel Pump in the diagnostic box, and this time I heard the fuel pump come on... however the car still did not turn over.
What could be the problem here?

Car definitely wont run with a blown EGI fuse. I had a car a couple years ago that had a leaky omp line getting oil on the primary injector connectors causing it to blow the fuse. I would check the connections for all the injectors and the wiring in that area. Also since it happened as you were turning into a gas station it is likely related to your wheels rubbing somewhere causing something to ground out.
Good luck
