2004 C4S tip, 50K miles. driving and car seemto want to die and started shaking. pulled over turned of motor and will not start back up . Has new battery. No lights came on at all. Could this be a fuel pump? I dont know where to start. Car cranks over and then dies.

Bad gas? Water in gas?

Bad fuel pump or clogged filter?

Bad crankshaft position sensor?

Loren, where is the crankshaft position sensor? and how can i tell if the fuel pump is bad? Can the fuel pump be replaced DIY ...and what clogged filter are you mentioning? Thanks

no lights? are you sure that a bad alternator is draining out the battery? fuses? relays? voltage regulation? run the codes, assuming you have power at the switch. get in to a good indy, and good luck...

no check engine lights at all, has new battery and all the light interior and exterior work perfectly, when trying to start the car it seems to crank for about a second and then dies out and shakes a bit while cranking.
