That was pretty cool of them! I'm like that. If I have time, even if I don't have time, I'll stop and help a stranded motorist to the best of my ability. I've given 'em rides to the parts store and back to their car and shit like that. I have a whole box of tools in my plow truck and will even pull you out of the ditch when you screwed up in the snow or ice.

I don't suppose you ran out of gas? Gas is also corrosive as all fuck. It'll happily soften the rubber covering wires - and do so quicker than you might think. So, you can check that - check where the gas was spilling onto the harness - look and feel for shorts. Other than that, check the three biggies - fuel, air, spark. You gotta have all three of those.

Also, I'm driving a million dollar car today and some dude actually tried to argue with me - telling me that I was driving the new C8 Corvette...

Yeah, like I don't know what car I'm driving. Also, I could buy like 15 Corvettes for the price I paid for this one.

I had no vehicular problems, thankfully. I can imagine that you're pretty frustrated - and rightfully so.

There seems to be a little bit of gas in the tank, i can hear it splashing around and there was fuel in the carburetor so i think its getting gas. I have the air filter off of the carb so theres a big hole going in so I imagine there is air. It was running fine up until it wasnt. I am not sure what would cause a lack of spark. I reseated the plug cables

Well, I suppose you could check for spark - unplug the wires, put 'em next to something metal, turn it over and look for sparking...

Those are the three big things to check. Knowing you, you've driven with just a splash of fuel in the tank before - so it's unlikely that you'll have a fuel pressure issue.

I wonder what could have been knocked loose?

I was not on the reserve tank when I hit the bump that cause the issues to appear. I switched to reserve when the issue first appeared and there was gas in the carb

I just tried some starting fluid in it and it didnt do anything
