- Fri Aug 07, 2009 7:08 am #136387 well i have a 93 four door everything is stock. i was driving down the road the other day and my car just stopped running it sounds like it wants to turn over but just doesn't i can hear the fuel pump prime when i turn the key. i'm gonna tear into tomorrow to see what i can find just thought i would see if this has happened to any one and they can give me a headstart on where to look first. thanks guys
