gimp19 Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Monday when I was going 60mph my Cutty just died. I pulled over and tried starting it atleast 10times and all it would do is crank, so I called my dad. He got there and still nothing at this point I figured it was gonna have to get towed. Then a cop stops and asks me if my car is dead, I told him it died while I was driving and wouldnt start. When I went to show him what is was doing it started right up. WTF The only thing I noticed is it didnt sound like it was firing or smell flooded, I thought my fuel pump died untill it started back up.
