    The other night i thought my regal ran out of fuel on the highway. It showed about an 1/8th of a tank at the time but i modified the fuel canister for a new pump. I figured the reach was less. It acted like fuel starvation. Loss of power then nothing.

    the other day I added 5 gallons of ethanol to it, and it would "try" to start on the first few revolutions then nothing. The pump is working. I replaced the fuel filter today, the old one wasnt bad. I even removed the fuel line from the fuel rail on the engine, turned the key and fuel shot out. I havent been able to get it to run. Any ideas?

    Time to check for spark. Check the IGN fuses as one may have blown.

    Had the same thing happen and it turned out the ICM decided to sh*t itself and also had a cracked coil. Thinking the coil may have messed with the ICM. Whatever it was, a new ICM and coil and was back in business.
