Any car will Crank all day...but you need Spark and Fuel to make it run

just figure I state that I know this b4 I start my thread to make get to the point.

The other day she ran FINE. Woke up went to drive her and NO...Crank...turn over then Boom Dead.

I let it sit for a few hours while I brain storm. Checked all my fuses under the hood (Ignition and ECM and battery too in order to pull out the IGN 1's) None were popped and I did the same in my interior panel. None were popped.

Put them back in and BAM she started.

I'm kinda cautious at this point b/c everything is breaking and going out on its way.

Do you think its possible that a few actually came loose? Don't recall any of them as I was tired...late at night when I did the fuses.

1) Possible fuel pump? Its been replaced by the previous owner...I don't know when but I'm just saying...

2) When I installed my Janzer TB I shorted my MSD BOX aka I fried the SOB so I sent it out to get repaired and then re wired the igntion back to stock (kinda Plug and Play...you get the point). I thought I fried my Ignition Module inside the distributor) Apparently not.

Anyway...thoughts comments...on wtf happened...wtf is going to happen? I HATE ROADSIDE REPAIR!
