engine shut down

I was driving and I stopped at a light and the engine just shut off, I tried to restart but it just kept cranking. I could use any advice.

Sure there is gas in the car but is it getting to the Engine?

Has it been a while since your last oil change? Low oil pressure switch?

RE: engine shut down

i just got finshed working on a 96 3.4 and it had the same problem i turned out to be the crank sensor. check spark and injector trigger if you have neither it is the cranck sensor
