89 LX Automatic. Got off work, car started fine. A couple of minutes later it just lost power and the engine died. I replaced the pump a few months ago, I can hear it energizing. The engine turns but it sounds sluggish, dragging. Haven't done any diagnostics yet. The battery light didn't come on, so I am guessing the alternator is fine.
A few years back, the something happened...that time the timing belt had a few teeth stripped. Hope is not that again...I'll post any updates so I can give you a better idea on what's going on.

Just trying to get an idea of what the problem is before I start working on it.
Fuel pump about 5 months old. Energizes.
Fuel filters new, replaced at the same time as the pump.
Battery also replaced at the beginning of summer.
Spark plugs and wires replaced just last week.
Starter replaced new this year
So will check for fuel, will check for spark at the plugs, will check for timing belt condition and see were it takes me. Just realized that I didn't replace the dizzy cap and rotor...
