After installing my new Catalitic Converer and Muffer I decided to take the van for a test spin. The van ran great! I could not believe how much power I had. Well the van ran great for exactly 12.8 miles ( I know this because that was how many miles it took to tow my Van back to the house).

Then, without warning it died and now will not start. It will turn over but not actually start. I am getting spark to the plugs and did notice that the fuel pump is vibrating when the key is turned.

Any ideas? What would cause the engine to suddenly stop?

Thanks,

Paul
