I was driving last night and gave the car some gas, and the rpm's just dropped and the car died. I didn't know what the hell was going on, so I coasted off into a parking lot and popped the hood. I changed the plugs hours before this problem and the car had been drove since the change (15 miles or so).
While in the parking lot, I pushed on the wires to make sure they were all connected, which they were, and the car was idling good. I revved up a few times without any problems so I figured that it was good to go. I attempt to get back on the road and when I got on the gas (normal accel) the car just bogged and died again so I went into the next drive rolling. Popped the hood and checked the vaccuums and didn't see anything wrong or unhooked. The car isn't throwing the CEL or anything.
Now to today.. I went to mess with the car and it'll crank at times, but once I give it gas it'll just drop the rpms and die
Cliff Notes:
Car ran for 15 miles but while driving I attempted to speed up (about 75% throttle) and the car just gasped for air and died.
Car was idling good and was able to rev fine while parked, though once in drive and attempting to go, would just die.
Today the car will crank *sometimes* and if any gas is given at all, it'll die.
I was told to push on the valve on the fuel rail to see if it would "shoot" gas, and it was flowing decently so I really have no clue.
Suggestions
I'm having someone come look at it around 6, just would like to know what to look for.
