Uhhh....check for codes, was it overheating at the time, oil pressure loss? If not, I'd take it to your mechanic.

 

jsut thinking here the red wires i used to hook up my miezere water pump too, would any of those be connected with the fuel pump?

 

Wow, talk about a run on sentence.

 

sorry man i was just freakin out that my brand new car didnt work i didn't know i was in 2nd period english my bad next time ill remember

 

No problem, just bustin your chops.

 

so give us the whole story. you JUST installed the water pump and hooked it to some unkown red wires and now the car is dead?

details, my friend, and take the time to reread your post before posting, it will make life easier on all of us.

 

So my dad took my car to work today. On his way home he accelerated to pass another car; while doing this the car just shut off. So, he pulled over and tried to restart it. When he did the car sounded like it was going to start but just wouldn't turn over. So we got the car towed home and it does the same thing it sounds like it is going start but just won't turn over. My novice skills make me feel that I have a busted fuel pump or something with the fuel line. The electrical system works fine no problems there. I am wondering whether hooking up my meziere electric water pump could have affected the fuel pump function. I hooked the pump up to one of the red wires like shown in the pictures on this forum. I just don’t know. Please help.

 

Do you have a programer? If yes, I would check for trouble codes and re-load my tune. I would also check the fuses. If you can trace the one you tapped into for the water pump, that would be the first one to check. Also if fuses are good disconnect the battery for a couple minutes to reset computer then try and start.
