Default Ghhhhheeeeeeyyyyyy

I was at my friends house, and i started it up to rev it for my friend, and it hesitated like a bitch, like it would pop and rev up and down like 100 pms really fast, and then bog, and id let my foot off the gas and it would go back to idle, but it stopped, and i tried to drive home and it died and wouldnt start, and i had to get it towed, but i let it get down alot farther than i usually do before filling up (usually fill at 1/4 of a tank, rilled at 1/16 of a tank) so i think i clogged the filter with bad gas


heres where it becomes tech

any suggestions on what else

(p.s. im getting a spark)

Maybe you're just out of gas?

Or maybe you ran out of gas and burned out your fuel pump.

Wouldn't hurt to check the flter to see if it's clogged. It does sound like a fuel delivery problem... although there are many thngs that could cause similar problems.

How bad was the rotor? was it a real weak or sporatic spark?
